A Colorado man attempted to switch places with his dog to convince law enforcement officials that the pet was behind the wheel to avoid a ticket, police said. The driver, who was not named, was pulled over for speeding on Saturday before the man “attempted to switch places with his dog, who was in the passenger seat”, the Springfield police department said. The man, who was driving from Las Animas to Pueblo, got lost in Springfield and was stopped by the police around 11.30pm on Saturday night. An officer watched the entire episode of the driver maneuvering inside the car to swap places with the dog before the man himself got out from the passenger side. “The male party then exited the passenger side of the vehicle and claimed he was not driving,” the police said. The police said that the man showed clear signs of intoxication and when asked about his alcohol consumption then he ran from the officer before being nabbed again. “The male party was apprehended quickly within about 20 yards of the vehicle,” police said. The man was found to have two active warrants for his arrest out of Pueblo and was booked for his warrants and charged with drinking and driving, speeding and resisting arrest. “The dog was given to an acquaintance of the driver to take care of while the party was in jail,” the police said. “The dog does not face any charges and was let go with just a warning,” they added. In January, the Wyandotte Police Department (WPD) of Michigan took to Facebook to share that a police dog was under investigation for allegedly stealing lunch from one of its colleagues. Sharing the mugshot of the dog named Officer Ice, the police department said the canine is “not cooperating with the investigation” and had a history of rummaging through trash cans. The cheeky post went viral on social media and was followed by other similar posts by the department.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun 21, 2023--

Alien fanatics are currently enjoying a prolonged field day, with a whole host of conspiracy theories and sightings to get their teeth into. From whistleblower “revelations” about hushed-up spacecraft, to an E.T. drop-in at a Las Vegas home, there seems no end to the reports on visitors from outer space. The latest of these offers an interesting twist on the usual flying saucer story, because this one is all about a USO. To the uninitiated, USO stands for “unidentified submerged object” or “unidentified submarine object”. In other words, something eerie lurking under the water. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter This particular USO was spotted off the coast of Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, last weekend, allegedly by a group of fishermen. The men began filming the ocean around them after they were greeted by an ethereal blue light beaming from beneath the waves. Footage of their close encounter has been widely shared on TikTok, where viewers have been urged to “watch until the end” of the three-minute clip. Those who have the time and inclination to do so will hear the fisherman’s increasingly excited voices cry: “Look! Look! There’s something there!” And, indeed, if you look closely you can make out a figure bobbing up and down in the azure patch of sea. @beyond.our.planet USO caught in Puerto Rico! What do you think? #USO #ufo #ufocommunity #aliensighting #ufosighting #whatsreallygoingon #conspiracy #lasvegasaliensighting #uap #aliens #paranormal #unexplained Naturally, the clip has been seized upon by commentators on both sides of the “aliens are among us” coin, with a third group offering an alternative supernatural explanation. “Forget the light THERE’S DEFINITELY A BEING RIGHT THERE,” wrote one stunned viewer. Meanwhile, one alien hunter insisted that the “creature” at the end of the video looked “exactly the same as [the one] in Las Vegas”. Others were adamant that the strange figure was not an alien but another mythical being. “Seems like a mermaid/siren,” offered one such theorist, adding: “They make that blue circle light under water.” (We appreciate how they’ve stated that as fact.) Others, with their feet planted firmly on solid ground, offered less romantic hypotheses. “What you are witnessing is called bioluminescence. It’s not groundbreaking but it’s pretty cool.” Bioluminescence is light produced by a chemical reaction within a living organism – for example, a fish, jelly or bacteria – which commonly takes the form of a jaw-dropping blueish-green glow. And sure, it may not be as interesting as a mermaid, alien, or “mermaid alien” but we agree, it is still pretty cool to behold. Have your say in our news democracy.
