A Wisconsin woman was arrested in Miami-Dade County after the authorities accused her of stealing expensive jewelry and designer items from two men she allegedly met during separate outings earlier this month.

According to investigators, the woman faces two grand theft charges along with a false imprisonment charge connected to incidents that happened days apart in the Miami area. She was later booked into jail and appeared before a judge, who set bond at $10,000.

One of the investigations began after a man contacted the authorities on May 16 and claimed that he lost a luxury watch after spending time with the suspect at a hotel near Miami International Airport. The alleged victim told investigators the two had drinks together before he suddenly began feeling dizzy and confused. He also allegedly struggled to remember what happened afterward.

A Nevada man was charged with several criminal offenses when his infant reportedly tested positive for multiple controlled substances and ended up in the pediatric intensive care unit.

According to reports from the authorities, early last week, a 9-month-old experienced a medical emergency and was rushed to Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno. At this time, the specifics of why the infant needed immediate care were not made public, but it was reported that the hospital staff had to administer CPR to stabilize the baby. The situation was reported to the authorities, and deputies from the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office went to the medical center to investigate.

The medical professionals reported that during their treatment of the infant, they did blood tests, which allegedly showed positive results for methamphetamine, benzodiazepines, and barbiturates. The deputies wanted to talk to the baby’s parents, but the father, who was present earlier, had reportedly left the building before they arrived. They spoke to the infant’s mom, and when the man came back to the medical center a while later, he talked to detectives.
