A male inmate in a maximum security unit at Maine's Cumberland County jail managed to squeeze out of his cell and crawl to a female detention unit for a scheduled tryst. The male, 23, a violent felon andfemale, 25, described as a Portland transient and assault suspect, managed to communicate to each other via the ventilation system, and set up the rendezvous. The man was caught crawling back to his cell. Prison officials say he made his bed up to appear he was sleeping during his "date." Jail officials blame proximity of the male and female units and "some lack of attention to detail" on the guards' part for the successful "date." Both inmates were moved to new locations; the male even earned a spot in the jail's "supermax" unit for his escape.
Des Moines, Iowa- a vehicle search after a traffic stop on Wednesday evening turned up possibly the creepiest wedding proposal kit ever. An officer had pulled over a driver for speeding and missing a license plate, and when the cop approached the driver, the newspaper says suspect Vincent Ballard began, “wafting his hand back and forth in front of himself like he was trying to disperse some smoke or an odor,” according to the police report. The odor was apparently marijuana, and the officer spotted counterfeit money and an alcoholic beverage near the driver, who allegedly gave several fake names before the officer determined the suspect's identity.The cop also found a backpack containing a black ski mask, leather gloves, chain handcuffs, a pocket knife, a police scanner, hypodermic needles -- and a diamond ring inside of a Zales jewelry box. The suspect -- who was arrested on multiple charges -- gave no reason for the bag's contents.
