What the Hell Theater


A would-be ID thief got nabbed when he tried to use the wrong credit card to pay for gas on Tuesday. ABC affiliate WHTM reports the clerk not only recognized 19-year-old Joshua Devonshire from school, but also her mom's name on the stolen card. The employee called the cops as Devonshire allegedly fled the store and drove away. Cops found him later sleeping in a car with an unidentified female. He reportedly admitted to trying to pass off the card and to related thefts from nearby vehicles, including from a car belonging to the clerk's mom's. Devonshire was sent to Lancaster County Prison pending $3,000 bond.

A Staten Island, New York man's morning routine was interrupted Tuesday when he spotted a four foot-long California Kingsnake watching him from his toilet. Allen Shepard was brushing his teeth when he saw the reptile, and according to SILive.com, he grabbed a bottle of Clorox cleaner and sprayed the snake. Not surprisingly, that didn't calm the snapping snake, so Shephard called his building's superintendent -- who didn't believe him at first, but who called a plumber. It took the plumber 30 minutes to pull the entire snake from the drain. It's thought the non-poisonous snake got into the plumbing from another apartment in the building, but no neighbors owned up to owning it, so was taken to a reptile sanctuary.
