A Florida man was arrested after allegedly threatening to stab his neighbor and eat her dog when he reportedly became upset over the belief that she was walking on his property with the canine.

On the afternoon of October 17, a woman in Interlachen was walking her dog on a path next to her neighbor’s property. It was reported that the homeowner spotted the woman, and he believed the path was a part of his plot of land. He reportedly approached her while holding two pocket knives and allegedly threatened to eat her dog if she came back. The woman quickly left, and the authorities were notified.

Deputies from the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office went to the scene and talked to both parties about what happened. As soon as they were satisfied that things had calmed down and the situation was handled, the deputies left. Unfortunately, according to a post made by the Sheriff’s Office, they were hasty in their retreat.

A man in Nebraska was arrested after an allegedly violent encounter in which he was accused of assaulting and holding his former girlfriend captive inside a residence.

The situation reportedly began a few weeks earlier when the man was released on bond following a separate case involving allegations of strangulation.

Authorities in Florida arrested a 59-year-old woman after she allegedly tried to poison an infant she was babysitting with antifreeze.

The incident reportedly occurred in February at the woman’s home near Palm Beach. The alleged victim, an 11-month-old baby, had been described by his parents as healthy. According to reports, the babysitter texted the mother around 2:25 p.m. and said the child was tired and asking for a nap. His grandmother picked him up about an hour later, and she noticed he was unusually tired and unable to hold his head up. Shortly after, the baby began vomiting a clear, sticky, and foul-smelling substance. His mother took him to the hospital, where his condition worsened and he was placed on life support after suffering cardiac arrest. He was revived after 10 minutes of CPR and transferred through several hospitals for further treatment. Doctors initially thought the child was ill, but test results ruled out infection or genetic causes. Further testing showed the presence of ethylene glycol in his system, which is the toxic chemical found in antifreeze, causing them to believe he had been the victim of a poisoning.

Investigators learned that the child’s mother left two bottles of breast milk and some solid food with the babysitter, but the woman later claimed she fed the child from a one-ounce bottle the mother had not supplied. When questioned, the babysitter denied that anyone else had contact with the child or that he had been near the garage where antifreeze was stored. Police found two bottles of antifreeze in the home, and one of them was partially empty.

A Texas corrections officer lost his job and is facing charges for allegedly bringing contraband, in the form of chicken wings, into the facility for an inmate who reportedly paid him for the alleged transaction.

According to reports, a 25-year-old man, who began working last summer as a corrections officer at the Travis County Correctional Complex in Austin, recently became embroiled in a situation involving an inmate who was housed in the facility. The inmate allegedly proposed a deal where the officer would be paid if he agreed to bring him chicken wings from Wingstop, and it was believed that the officer reportedly agreed to the terms. Correctional facilities are allowed to monitor the telephone communications of certain inmates, and things went awry when a Security Threat Intelligence Unit officer was listening in on a call that the inmate made to a family member.

It was reported that during the chat, the inmate shared the alleged plan to satisfy his craving for wings. He reportedly said he convinced an officer to get them for him by sending him $50.00 on CashApp. The authorities began investigating the situation, and they watched surveillance video that showed a food delivery driver dropping off a bag of chicken wings at the facility.
