An allegedly intoxicated woman from Eastern Iowa is facing multiple charges after reportedly asking several gas station patrons to help her bypass her Interlock device by breathing in it for her.

According to reports, on Independence Day, a woman was parked outside a Kwik Star convenience store and gas station in North Liberty. The driver, who was later found to have been convicted three times in the past 12 years for operating a vehicle while under the influence, had an Interlock device in the car. She allegedly went up to multiple customers and asked if they would help her start her car by blowing into the machine for her.

When the authorities were alerted about the situation, officers from the North Liberty Police Department headed to the business to see what was going on. When they got there, they reported that the woman was sitting in the car with he engine running. When the officers talked to her, they believed she smelled like she had been drinking. The woman told them she did not consume alcohol, and she took a roadside sobriety test. According to reports, she completed all but two of the tasks, but the police still asserted that she appeared to be intoxicated while she did them.

A man in Alabama who was accused of burglarizing multiple vehicles allegedly led the pursuing officers on a chase and crashed into several police cars before he was arrested.

According to reports, on August 27 in the historic college town of Auburn, at least three vehicle owners found that they were missing personal items from their cars, which they believed had been burglarized. When one of the alleged victims of the purported thefts notified the authorities, he reported that the perpetrator was spotted while they were in his vehicle. The police opened an investigation and began searching for the suspect. It didn’t take long for the officers to spot the man they believed was responsible for the thefts, as he was driving a car in the same neighborhood, but it was reportedly far from easy for law enforcement to catch him.

When the police tried to initiate a traffic stop, the driver allegedly ignored them and continued driving. It was reported that he drove to the Interstate onramp and forced the officers to chase him down the highway. Police vehicles were parked near one of the mile markers, and the suspect reportedly slammed into them, rendering his car inoperable. He got out of the vehicle and allegedly tried to run away, but he did not get far before the police nabbed him.

A Florida woman is facing several charges for allegedly performing dental procedures without a license on individuals who later required emergency surgery to save their teeth.

According to reports, a woman who advertised discount veneers on social media was arrested in Hillsborough County in March for allegations that she performed procedures on individuals and accepted money for them, but was not a licensed dentist. After the arrest, she allegedly reopened shop at a beauty bar in Pinellas Park and continued attaching veneers. Over the summer, two individuals notified the authorities after reportedly having work done. They informed them that they had to undergo emergency surgery to save their teeth because they developed infections after the procedures. Another alleged customer reported that she was told the veneers would last between five and seven years, but they kept falling out. She said she asked for a refund, but she was denied and then ignored by the woman.

Investigators looked into the situation and reportedly found that the woman had not gone to school or been trained in dentistry, and she was not licensed to practice in the state of Florida. They believed that instead of doing it properly, she used crazy glue or nail glue to affix the veneers.

On the evening of August 22, a man was parked close to a home in Kirbyville on a county road. When a woman inside the residence spotted the vehicle, she went outside to see what was up.

A Florida man may face legal consequences after being accused of intentionally timing his sprinkler system so the special needs students boarding and deboarding the school bus near his home would be soaked with water.

According to reports, for the past year, a family with two disabled children, one of whom is in a wheelchair, has had difficulties with their next-door neighbor when they board their school bus. The bus parks in front of their Ocala home, and when the wheelchair ramp is lowered, it reportedly blocks part of the neighbor’s driveway. The 61-year-old man reported being frustrated by the situation. At the beginning of August 2024, it was believed that he used his lawn sprinkler system to retaliate against the annoyance.

Each time the father of the students came out of the house with his kids, they were soaked by the sprinklers, which were allegedly intentionally aimed at the area between the home and the door of the bus. Neighbors reported that they often saw the sprinklers come on when the dad would bring his wheelchair-bound 17-year-old daughter, who has Prader-Willi syndrome, to the bus. The alleged water assault continued as the man escorted his 22-year-old son, who has been diagnosed with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome. When they returned from school, the sprinklers reportedly came on again, causing them to get wet a second time.

Two people in southern Florida were accused of targeting individuals wearing expensive watches who were frequenting nightclubs and robbing them at gunpoint.

On August 2, the first of a string of alleged armed robberies took place after a man left the LIV Nightclub. When he returned to his Airbnb, an individual reportedly pulled a gun out and forced him to hand over his $80,000 Rolex watch and quickly left in a vehicle driven by another person. The following day, another alleged victim had their Rolex taken at gunpoint, and it was believed that the same suspect was involved. Several additional expensive timepieces had reportedly been taken from others in the area, many of whom encountered the suspect after leaving local clubs.

Several agencies worked together to investigate the incidents, including the Miami Beach Police Department, the City of Miami Police Department, the Miami-Dade County Sheriff’s Office, and the Broward County Sheriff’s Office. Using footage from surveillance cameras, they were able to find out that the alleged getaway car belonged to the sister of a 30-year-old man. They suspected he was the perpetrator, and a woman who was previously convicted of similar crimes was the driver. They believed each alleged victim was followed home before being robbed at gunpoint. The authorities searched the man’s home for possible evidence of his involvement. While there, they reportedly found $16,400 and more than $176,000 worth of items they believed had been stolen.

A few hours earlier, the mother of a 2-year-old gave her daughter breakfast, and afterwards, they went to lie down together. The woman dozed off, and while she napped, the youngster, who was wearing only a diaper, went outside without her mother’s knowledge. According to reports, a neighbor was driving by and spotted the running around near the road without an adult present. He called his wife to tell her about the situation.

The authorities were notified, and when law enforcement arrived, they reported that the youngster was sitting on the sidewalk in a soiled diaper.
