Glam Gone Rogue
Apparently, real men do steal makeup. Two men walked into a cosmetics store in Chimney Lakes and treated the place like an all-you-can-snatch buffet. While one played lookout, the other loaded up on beauty products — like a glam-themed buddy comedy, minus the laughs and, y’know, payment.
Instead of checking out, they just checked out — with nearly $5,000 worth of makeup in tow. Bold move. We’re not sure if they were shopping for themselves, prepping for a drag debut, or just confused about how stores work. Either way, they still have not been found, and who knows if we would recognize them now.
Duck, Duck, Rescue!
Not all heroes wear capes, some wear a badge and all black (and no, we’re not talking about Batman). A few weeks ago, two District 2 patrol officers responded to a different kind of distress call — or rather, a distress quack.
While on patrol, the officers noticed a frantic mama duck pacing near a storm grate. Turns out, one of her ducklings had taken an accidental detour and fallen in. Without missing a beat, the officers sprang into action, lifted the grate and rescued the tiny quacker.
The moment the duckling waddled back to its mom? Pure fluff-filled joy, and yes, it was all caught on camera. Cue the happy tears (and quacks).
