Traffic flagger called 911 to report a motorist got mad that she had stopped him in traffic for a road construction event. He didn’t
want to be delayed for even a minute so he very impatiently edged his car forward until he finally bumped into her. When she
jumped back he swerved around her and took off. So yeah..that was a hit and run/vehicular assault. When I tracked him down
and asked him what the hurry had been he announced “I WAS LATE FOR A GOLF TOURNAMENT!”

Car crash scene: a fast old muscle car had smashed into the side of a station wagon, at pretty high speed. Quite memorable
because the oil pan on the muscle car had gotten knocked off and hot engine oil exploded outward in a fine spray; coating the
side of the car that had been hit. The passenger’s side window on the hit car had shattered on impact, and a split second later
the oil hit, splattering the right side of the woman sitting in the passenger seat. She had little droplets of engine oil all on the
right side of her head. How’s that for unusual.

17 year old kid, repeat offender, rumored to have a stolen handgun in his bedroom. Mom lets me search. I found the gun under
his dresser. The kid goes to jail. The incarceration penalty for possessing a gun? Guess how many months. Remember, it’s a
stolen gun, too. Now how many months? Oh the kid is also already on probation for multiple prior offenses. Now how many
months would you guess? If you were to say “oh let’s just lock him up for less than half a month” well then you would be correct.
