Man calls 911; claims drug dealer didn't bring him marijuana, cocaine he bought

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) – A New Hanover County 911 dispatcher received an unusual complaint Tuesday, when a man said that he wanted to file a police report after a drug dealer allegedly failed to bring him the marijuana and cocaine that he had paid for.

In the 911 call, the caller, identified as Dave, claimed that he had met with his drug dealer and given him $80 in exchange for the drugs. The man who took the money then reportedly told Dave he would go get the drugs, and would meet him at the Scotchman gas station at Wilshire Boulevard and Kerr Avenue, but he never showed up there

Thirsty music festivalgoers in South Africa this summer may be able to get beer instantly delivered to them — via drones.

During August's OppiKoppi Music Festival, attendees can order beers from their phones to be delivered the event's District 9 campsite. The beer-equipped drones will swoop down and deliver beer via parachute to the appropriate customer, as explained in the video above. The organizers say the beer drones are now hand-guided, but in the future they'll fly on a GPS grid.

But this 21st-century service might not fly without its share of turbulence: Targeting the right customer amongst the crowds at OppiKoppi will be an interesting challenge to overcome. And festival attendees might not have the greatest sense of motor control for catching their drink order, after having one too many.

This is not the first time someone has thought of a clever concept like this: Last year, a San Francisco-based research lab developed a burrito-dropping drone.

LOS ANGELES -- An inability to steal an auto with a clutch and manual transmission sent a car thief to jail today in the Mid-City area of Los Angeles, a police sergeant said.

Officers saw the suspect driving erratically about 4:50 a.m. near 18th Street and Westmoreland Avenue, said Los Angeles police Sgt. J. Kevany of the Olympic station.

"Officers saw the guy driving a stick shift -- like he didn't know how to drive a stick shift," Kevany said. "He made eye contact with the officers and drove away."

(CNN) -- Call it the Treaty of Everest 2013.

It's a two-paragraph agreement, in both English and Nepalese, signed by climbers and Sherpas who on Saturday engaged in a donnybrook at 23,000 feet.

Punches, kicks and even rocks were thrown, according to a statement posted Sunday on the website of one of the climbers, Simone Moro.

The Sherpas, locals who guide expeditions up the world's highest mountain, apparently became angered when the climbers from Italy, Switzerland and the United Kingdom did not listen to instructions from the Sherpas, moved above them on the peak and dislodged ice that fell in the direction of the Sherpas.

At one point "the climbers ... were told that if they weren't gone in one hour that they would all be killed," the statement said.

Check Out This Horrifying Brazilian Testicle Mascot

Buried in the photo gallery of a recent event attended by the Associação de Assistência às Pessoas com Câncer, a Brazilian non-profit that helps people with cancer, is a photo of its horrifying mascot.

The mascot, we are told, goes by the "Mr. Balls," and he works to raise awareness about testicular cancer. According to the AAPC website and courtesy of some Google-translating, "Both children and adults loved taking pictures with the mascot , a friendly snowman in the shape of testicle."

The Hypno Boob Job: I went up three cup sizes after seeing a hypnotist (at a cost of £900)


Ever since she lost 14st three years ago, Ashley Weller had been unhappy about the size of her breasts.

But as a single mother with three children, she couldn’t afford plastic surgery.

So when the 26-year-old heard about a hypnotherapist who said she could make her bust bigger simply by thinking about it, she decided to give it a go – even though it seemed too good to be true.

It can be frustrating when a restaurant employee gets your order wrong.

You might say to yourself, “Aww man, I asked for no pickles!” But it usually doesn’t ruin your day – or the day of others.

Wednesday, one 44-year-old Astoria man took that frustration too far, and has landed himself in the Clatsop County Jail, charged with several counts after striking two McDonald’s employees with his car.

Brian Ray Schumacher, an employee of Astoria Towing, was arrested after the lunch his father ordered for him at McDonald’s didn’t turn out just right.

Schumacher told police he didn’t want pickles on his burgers but when he got his food, there were pickles on there anyway.

“The pickle juice tastes gross on the burger,” Schumacher told Astoria Police, according to the report of the incident.

Bishop of Providence Thomas Tobin, the Roman Catholic leader of Rhode Island, on Thursday warned Catholics that God looked unfavorably upon those who attended same-sex weddings.

In a letter published as Rhode Island was poised to become the tenth state to embrace marriage equality, Tobin wrote that Catholics should have “respect, love and pastoral concern” for LGBT individuals.

But that didn’t mean Catholics should accept their relationships or attend their wedding ceremonies.

“At this moment of cultural change, it is important to affirm the teaching of the Church, based on God’s word, that ‘homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered,’ (Catechism of the Catholic Church, #2357) and always sinful,” Tobin explained.

Call it the Kentucky Dirty!

Vegas is going all-in with its newest way to waste money: Sex toy races -- and may the vibrator with the most buzz vibrate across the finish line first.

The new bar game, played by up to eight people, pits four battery-powered dildos against one another in a 1.5 mph race against the cock (had to be said).

The sex toys propel themselves on a piece of paper using what Fun Factory describes as a "new technology called drive."

"It’s not the most cerebral game but at least it’s more complex than Keno, and it gets people really riled up," says Fun Factory CEO Frederic Walme, who ran the first sex toy race.
