  • Chihuahua Blamed For New York Bomb Scare (Sort Of)

    A chihuahua was indirectly responsible for a bomb scare at a New York courthouse last week Friday. Poor Melvin Ruffin; all he did wrong was to take a bus ride, when a Chihuahua decided that his bag was a good place to urinate on. This set off a chain of events that lead to the bomb squad being called in.

    The bus he was riding on arrived outside a courthouse in Central Islip, New York, where he had to answer a disorderly conduct charge. He decided rather than bring the bag into the courtroom; he stashed it in some bushes outside the court complex (not a clever move).

    A retired police officer happened to see the bag and called the police, who sent in the bomb squad, who sent in a robot to determine if the bag was a bomb.

    Thankfully all ended happily, apart from the fact that Melvin had a piss-covered bag and was very nearly charged for planting a bomb, much like a man who spent four days in jail when his cheese set off a bomb detector. Check that story out here (halfway down the page).
