This could have gone in several other threads. Florida Man Shot by Police While Celebrating Ron DeSantis' New Gun Law Story by Aliss Higham •1h A Florida man who fired a rifle to celebrate the state's new open carry laws before promptly being shot by a police officer has finally been arrested following a two-month stint in hospital. Christian Labaut, 37, was shot by police on July 7 after he fired a gun into the air. A law enforcement officer shot him when he refused to comply with officers and began running away from them. He was arrested on September 15th following his recovery. According to the arrest report seen by the Miami Herald, law enforcement traveled to an Upper East Side apartment complex near the 7800 block of Northeast 10th Avenue, Miami, where they found a Labaut wearing body armor and wielding a gun. Witnesses reportedly told officers that Labaut announced he was celebrating the new law and firing a string of bullets into the air.

A group of Floridians plan to host a series of competitions themed according to the collective antics of the beer-loving, gator-possessing, rap-sheet heavy, mullet-wearing social media phenomenon known as “Florida Man.” The games will poke fun at Florida’s reputation for producing strange news stories involving guns, drugs, booze and reptiles — or some combination of the four. (AP Photo/Alan Diaz, file) Spoiler Updated 3:07 AM CDT, October 26, 2023 ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. (AP) — It ain’t the Olympics, but a group of Floridians plan to host competitions themed according to the collective antics of the beer-loving, gator-possessing, rap-sheet heavy, mullet-wearing social media phenomenon known as “Florida Man.” Organizers of the “Florida Man Games” describe the competition as “the most insane athletic showdown on Earth.” The games will poke fun at Florida’s reputation for producing strange news stories involving guns, drugs, booze and reptiles — or some combination of the four. Among the contests planned for next February in St. Augustine, Florida, according to organizers, are the Evading Arrest Obstacle Course in which contestants jump over fences and through yards while being chased by real police officers; the Category 5 Cash Grab in which participants try to grab as much money in a wind-blowing booth; and the self-explanatory beer-belly wrestling. “This isn’t just a competition; it’s a one-of-a-kind Floridian spectacle!” organizers said on the games’ website. The “Florida Man” concept crept into the nation’s consciousness a decade ago with the @_FloridaMan Twitter account. The account, with the tagline “Real-life stories of the world’s worst superhero,” has been home to headlines such as “Florida Man Fire Bombs Garage That Impounded His Car, Hits His Own Vehicle” and “Florida Man Tried to Pay for McDonald’s With Weed.” General admission tickets to the event are going for $45. Two former stars of the 1990s television show “American Gladiators” have agreed to serve as referees. A St. Augustine resident is behind the games: Pete Melfi, owner of The 904 Now, a media outlet covering St. Johns County. “We thought, ‘How can we really play on these Florida Man headlines that we hear so much about?’ Someone gave me the idea to make it into an athletic competition,” Melfi told the Orlando Sentinel. “It’s going to be a wild day of mud games and Florida-style obstacle courses. It’s going to really be an opportunity to live that Florida Man life for a day.” How will Ohio respond?

The Minot Police Department said that Ina Thea Kenoyer, 47, has been charged with Class AA Felony Murder for killing Steven Edward Riley, 51, just hours after he received a $30 million inheritance.

For starters, women are once again dominating the headlines for some wild crimes, from stealing sweeper trucks to high-speed drunken joyrides. They're not the only ones putting others at risk. Two guys are facing charges for striking people with a hatchet, while a firefighter is facing charges for putting a knife to someone's neck over a cast iron skillet "joke."

In order to claim the inheritance, however, Riley was told he needed to travel to the airport and sign off on the documents with the attorney. “The supposed lawyer never showed up,” Riley’s son, Ryan, told the New York Post. “It was a scam. It was a stranger who managed to trick my dad into believing it was true, unfortunately.” Ryan said that his father “wasn’t suspicious” prior to the airport meeting. “He was convinced he had inherited the money and was going to receive it when the supposed lawyer landed,” Ryan told the New York Post.
Holy shit. I’m guessing they wanted to see if the guy showed up and was that convinced and then ask him for his checking and savings account info.
