This is why old people shouldn't drive

"I just want to thank the Lord above, because without his help, we may never have made it home," Stancil said Tuesday afternoon. "I can't thank him enough and of course all the neighbors and the sheriff's [department] for their help. It's just really good to be back home."

Alligator-Swinger Gets Six Months in Jail

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) ? A man who swung an alligator at his girlfriend during an argument was sentenced to six months in jail.

David Havenner, 41, of Port Orange, pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges of battery and possession of an alligator, said Linda Pruitt, spokeswoman for the State Attorney's Office. He changed his earlier plea of not guilty, she said Wednesday.

He was sentenced to six month in jail with 48 days credit for time served during the Sept. 1 hearing, according to court records.

Sheriff's officials said Havenner was keeping the 3-foot gator in his bathtub and swung it at his girlfriend, Nancy Monico, 39, during an argument on July 16.

Monico told investigators that Havenner beat her with his fists, then grabbed the gator and swung it at her as she tried to escape. The gator struck Monico at least once, after which time Havenner threw empty beer bottles at her and then kicked her out of their mobile home, she told investigators.

Havenner told investigators that Monico bit his hand because she was upset that they had run out of alcohol.

The alligator was later released into the St. Johns River, wildlife commission officials said.

Sounds like they made the whole trip in the left lane at 35mph or something...
 
Erwin, TN is where I live. The reason they can't drive isn't because they are old. The reason they can't drive is because they are from Erwin.
 
Bizarre.

Swift Thief Skates Through Hospital

BOZEMAN, Mont. (AP) ? Police were searching Wednesday for a man who roller-skated into the Bozeman Deaconess Hospital (search) and stole the wallet of a patient.

Surveillance cameras caught the suspect on tape last week. He was seen skating through the maternity ward the morning of Aug. 30 before heading to the second floor and into the patient's room, police officer Sam Hasz said.

The man's wallet contained $800. He was not identified, but had been in town for a wedding and was hospitalized with neck pain. The man was not in his room when the burglary occurred.

The suspect is described as a white man between 18 and 21 years old and 5 feet 8 inches to 6 feet tall, with light-colored hair and no facial hair, Hasz said.

Police did not know how the suspect knew the man had money and what room he was staying in.

I think it's time for someone to lose their licenses and have someone with their total
mind available to drive them around.
