A reality star (no...not THAT one) has some trouble with the law, a man risks his life for beer, and a Japanese man keeps bottles of his pee...
Phoenix, AZ- A reality TV star has been busted on drug charges.
31-year-old Jacob Harris, a cast member of Discovery Channel's Deadliest Catch, reportedly stole a friend's car late Friday night. The woman told police she woke up to find Harris, her keys, her cash and her vehicle gone.
Cops tracked down Harris a short time later, and he was found to be in possession of prescription drugs and crystal meth.
He's facing charges for felony theft, as well as dangerous drug possession and possession of illegal prescription drugs. [AZfamily.com]
If I'm on the Arctic Ocean on a crab boat 24 hours a day, drugs sound like a pretty good option...
Sioux Falls, SD- A man was arrested after running into a burning house.
Firefighters arrived to battle the blaze Sunday afternoon. 56-year-old Michael Casteel kept trying to run back into the building. Obviously, firefighters wouldn't let him go inside...ya know, because the BUILDING WAS ON FIRE...but Casteel eventually forced his way in.
What was such a high priority for him--a child? A pet? Family photos? NOPE. Two cans of Bud Ice Premium. Yep. This dude risked his life to grab his beer. A beer that costs about $13 for a 12-pack.
Casteel has been charged with obstruction. He's also had two prior DUI arrests in the past year...I know, I'm just as surprised as you are. [KELO]
Oita, Japan- A man was arrested for living above a public toilet...
54-year-old Takashi Yamanouchi was discovered when city officials opened a service hatch. They noticed a 990-square-foot crawlspace furnished with a stove, heater, and clothing. Turns out, Yamanouchi had been squatting there for THREE YEARS.
Officials also found more than 300 plastic bottles filled with Yamanouchi's URINE neatly organized throughout the attic. He has been charged with trespassing. [Rocket News]
He lived above a toilet that he never used? That's one way to not get caught, I guess...
