Bikini-clad woman accused of carjacking in Miss.
Jul 27, 9:16 PM (ET)
SOUTHAVEN, Miss. (AP) - Police in Mississippi say a woman was carjacked by a bikini-clad suspect, who they say later tried to rob an RV dealership. Southaven Police Chief Tom Long said the 24-year-old suspect approached another woman in her driveway and demanded the car on Thursday. The woman gave up the car without a fight, asking only for time to remove her young children from inside. Long said the suspect then drove the car to the business, where she told employees she had a gun and demanded money. The employees did not believe the claim and restrained her until officers arrived. Police said the suspect appeared to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol. She was charged with carjacking and assault. --- Information from: DeSoto Times Today,http://www.desototimes.com

lawn

PAW PAW, Mich. (AP) - Authorities said a lost and confused drunken driver
picked the wrong place to stop and rest - the front lawn of the Michigan State Police post in Paw Paw.
Police said the man drove onto the lawn of the post early Thursday after overshooting the station's
parking lot. He was visibly intoxicated and had vomited on
himself.
The driver told officers he couldn't remember where he was coming from but said
he was going to his Grand Rapids-area home. Michigan State Police said in a statement the man simply
happened to choose the post as a resting
spot.
The man's blood-alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit. Police said
he was arrested six times previously for drunken driving and his license has been revoked.
He is held in the Van Buren County jail.

Police also said a loaded handgun was found in the car. The pair were arrested on charges of neglect of a dependent. The man also was arrested on a marijuana possession charge.

Fla. police say men called 911 after bad drug deal DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Authorities said two men called 911 after they were robbed at gunpoint while trying to buy 20 pounds of marijuana. The Volusia County Sheriff's Office reported that the men went to a home Monday with $12,000 to buy the drugs. Two men at the home jumped them, took their money and drove off. A report said the victims jumped in their own vehicle to follow and one of them called 911 for help. The other vehicle got away, but deputies went back to the house, where they arrested a 34-year-old man and
charged him with robbery. Authorities are still looking for the other man. A sheriff's spokesman said charges could follow for the men seeking to buy the drugs. --- Information from: Daytona Beach News-Journal, http://www.news-journalonline.com
Craigslist pot ad leads to pot bust QUINCY, Mass. (AP) - A man has been arrested after he allegedly placed an advertisement on Craigslist selling marijuana. Police said undercover detectives responded to the advertisement and bought a small bag of pot from 30-year-old Christopher Gray for $45. According to police, Christopher Gray posted the advertisement on the online classified site with the words "420 help is here." The item read "Give me a ring if you need some help," and listed a phone number, which a detective called Friday and arranged for a meeting with Gray in Quincy. The term "420" is believed to stem from the time of day that smokers at a California high school in
1971 would meet to smoke pot. --- Information from: The Patriot Ledger, http://www.patriotledger.com Man accused of drunken horse riding in snowstorm
