Never a lender nor a borrower be,12/4/10 Lafayette police responded to the report of a stolen rental car. Apparently, the accused took the 1960's jingle "Let Hertz put you in the driver's seat" literally. The victim (and police) didn't appreciate the "borrower" not returning inquiry phone calls.
'Tis the Season, 12/5/10 A Petar's customer punched another customer in the face in the wee hours of December 5. How very unusual! The puncher, who was shorter and weighed less than the punch-ee, was feeling his oats; while the punch-ee was feeling the pain. Puncher was placed under citizen's arrest.
Was it something I said? 12/4/10 Just hours before, at that very same establishment, a short woman hit a tall man in the face with a glass. The man declined medical attention and declined to press charges. Maybe she was drinking p.i.n.k. vodka and wanted him to see the world through rose-colored glass(es).
All I want for Christmas...12/10/10 Two robbers hit employees and customers with pepper spray, then snatched a Play Station 3 game console from Radio Shack and fled the scene by car (only to play Grand Theft Auto later?). The victims were treated and released.
