Ontario woman claims she's an ambassador to Canada
A woman from Hamilton, Ont., came up with an interesting method to try to get out of jail time: After being arrested at the conclusion of a Pearl Jam concert at the First Niagara Center, she told police she was an ambassador to Canada.
In a Buffalo Police report, security inside the concert told the 25-year-old woman and her male companion to stop walking up and down the aisle because they were disturbing other concertgoers, and she responded by arguing with security and using vulgarity, according to The Buffalo News.
After being escorted from the arena, the woman began darting in and out of traffic. That is when she was taken into custody.
Police did not believe her claims that she was an official representative of her nation.
Why so serious?
The joker has been arrested without the assistance of Batman.
Dennis Lalime, 64, was arrested Sunday after he crashed his car into a tree while intoxicated in Pittsfield, Maine.
He was on his way home from a Halloween party at 2 a.m. when he lost control of his vehicle and crashed into multiple trees and rocks before coming to a stop, according to WCBDTV Charleston.
In his mugshot, Lalime sported white face paint and green hair.
Police have had troubles with locals impersonating super heroes in the past. Just last year, Mark Williams, a Maine native who dresses as Batman occasionally, was charged with obstruction of justice.
Lalime's car was damaged but he suffered no injuries. He has been charged with operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol.
I've been walking in my sleep
A man in China is alive after being trapped in a crevice for two days.
The man was reportedly sleepwalking when he fell off a cliff into a crack in a mountainous range that was 100 feet off the ground.
A local villager spotted the 27-year-old man stuck in the flaming mountains near Turpan and notified local authorities, according to The Global Times.
The man told police Oct. 20 that he weakly remembered sleepwalking nights before but had no recollection of how he got trapped in the crevice.
The man walked away with just a few minor bruises.
This is not the first case of a sleepwalker in a peculiar situation. Last year, an Idaho woman woke up in a river near her home twice in a matter of several months.
