N.C. State student accused of creating a 'monster'

Posted: Jun. 12, 2009

Raleigh, N.C. — Raleigh police arrested a North Carolina State University student last week who was accused of creating a "monster" out of construction barrels and placing it on the side of the road.

Authorities charged Joseph Carnevale with larceny for taking materials from a construction site at a roundabout project to create the monster.

Man beaten, robbed for bologna sandwich in Oklahoma City
From staff reports
Published: June 18, 2009

Roger Hamilton told police he was sitting on a bus station bench, preparing to put mayonnaise on his bologna and cheese sandwich, when a man wearing headphones began staring at him.

Hamilton, 24, told police he asked the man if he could help him, but before he knew it, the man punched him in the mouth and snatched his sandwich.

When police arrived at the Hudson Street bus station Wednesday, they found Hamilton with a swollen lip and his face covered in blood.

Hamilton told police he did not know the man or why he assaulted him and stole his sandwich. He described him as a black man who appeared to be in his 30s.

The police report values the sandwich at 76 cents.

Rather than arrest him, they ought to license his creation and build a slow down in construction sonzes ad campaign around the so called onster, who is wayyyyy to stinkin' cute to be scary

That is funny.

Sounds like our current economic policy. Less painful, same principle.
