"Man says police destroyed mystical powers"

Odd News:

"Man says police destroyed mystical powers"

(UPI) -- An Oregon man claims in a lawsuit Idaho police destroyed the mystical powers of a medicine bag when they opened it during his drunken driving arrest in August.

Craig Clark Show, 49, of Portland said the bag provided protection, had been blessed by a medicine woman and had remained closed since 1995, the Sandpoint (Idaho) Bonner County Daily Bee reported Friday.

The suit seeks $25,000 in damages.

Show was stopped on U.S. Highway 95 in Granite Hill while riding his Harley-Davidson motorcycle and was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence after a test revealed a blood alcohol level of 0.16, police said.

In his Jan. 17 complaint against the state police and the Bonner County Sheriff's Office, Show also alleged he was persecuted for his religious beliefs and that his motorcycle was scratched by a drug-detection dog during a search.

The lawyer representing Show in the DUI case moved to suppress evidence on constitutional grounds, but a judge ruled the traffic stop and DUI investigation were conducted lawfully.

Show was supposed to have been tried this month, but was ill. A new trial date is to be set.

"Police find buried bus full of pot plants"

"Police find buried bus full of pot plants"

(UPI) -- Authorities in North Carolina said a school bus being used as a marijuana greenhouse was well hidden -- it was buried underneath the suspect's garage.

Lenoir County Sheriff's Maj. Chris Hill said the Wednesday arrest of Jerome Murriell, who was pulled over with several pounds of marijuana in his car, led them to search the home of Linsey and Desiz Dail outside of Kinston, WITN-TV, Greenville, N.C., reported.

"The canines were brought in," Hill said, "and as a result of the dogs being brought in they located a hidden panel, or door, or wall in an out building."

Hill said the panel was disguising a tunnel leading to an underground school bus that had been outfitted as a marijuana growing room.

"To actually dig a hole and place a school bus inside of it and cover it up with dirt and have a tunnel to it to cover up, that whole operation is at the very least unique," Hill said.

He said investigators found 60 mature marijuana plants inside the bus.

Sheriff's officials said all three suspects were charged with conspiracy to manufacturing marijuana, trafficking marijuana and possession with intent to sell marijuana. They were taken to the Lenoir County Jail.

"Ohio police say man tried to take their candy bars"

Odd News:
"Ohio police say man tried to take their candy bars"

(ap)-Talk about sticky fingers: Police arrested a man they say tried to take their candy bars. Police in the southwest Ohio city of Middletown, around 30 miles north of Cincinnati, charge that Derek Kidd, 32, tried to walk out of the station with two candy bars and a police toboggan cap. Police Maj. Mark Hoffman said Kidd and his girlfriend had just been released Wednesday after disorderly conduct arrests and were asking passers-by to use a cell phone. He invited them inside to use a police phone.

While the woman was on the phone, Hoffman said, he chased Kidd out of a detectives' break room.

As they left, Hoffman said, another officer spotted his blue knit "MPD" logo cap under Kidd's cap. Police said during a pat down, they found two of their Whatchamacallit brand candy bars and two used syringes Kidd had taken from a disposal container.

Kidd was being held on charges of theft and possession of drug abuse instruments pending a court appearance Friday. No attorney was listed and city jail staffers wouldn't allow him to come to the phone for comment.

His friend, Sunni Morgan, 23, was arrested later Wednesday, Hoffman said. She was being held on charges of impersonating a police officer and criminal trespass after allegedly trying to get use of a city resident's phone by claiming to be a police officer.
