KID, 11, CALLS IN SCHOOL BOMB THREAT AS A "JOKE"
WELL that's one way to get out of school - but definitely not the smartest, that's for sure.
An 11-year-old called in a bomb threat to his school, threatening to blow up students and shoot teachers because he was "bored."
The fifth-grader's message to Indiana's Yorktown Community Schools voicemail system sent the district into lockdown, as officers and sniffer dogs scrambled to search for the explosives.
Marshal Todd St. John tells The Star Press that the boy told officers he called in the threat because he was bored and meant it as a joke.

MAN CHARGED FOR PAYING BILL - WITH 2500 PENNIES
CHUMP CHANGE |
Jason West walked into the Basin Clinic in Vernal, UT, asked staff members whether accepted cash and then dumped the loose change on the counter and demanded they count it according to the town's Assistant Police Chief Keith Campbell.
He added: “The pennies were strewn about the counter and the floor,” and that his actions served; "no legitimate purpose."
So they issued the 38-year-old West a citation for disorderly conduct. That carries a fine of as much as $140. Or 14,000 pennies.

CANADIAN KIDS OFFERED FOR SALE ON KIJIJI
IT turned out to be a harmless prank - a kid placing an advert on sales website offering two children for sale. Stating that the children had to be gone in a week or they'd be put on the streets, the ad included photos and a brief description of the youngsters.
But after spending time investigating, cops who were tipped off by a concerned member of the public, were none too happy when they found out that a 16-year-old from Chatham, Ontario was behind the ad.
He admitted posting as a joke and apologized for the prank after he was warned about his actions.

MONDAY MUGSHOT MADNESS! CLEVER RANDON REID
KICKING LIFE'S ASS. HARD! |
REALLY NOT THE WAY TO ROB A BANK
TO be fair, he got the first bit right.
He walked into the bank, handed a note to the teller and demanded money and she promptly handed him $200 in a plastic bag.
What he didn't think about was his getaway - on fact he didn't even plan on getting out of the bank in Peterborough, ON.
Instead nutty John Frederick Booth, 36, simply sat down on the floor and waited for the confused cops to arrive.
Surprised Sergeant Walter DiClemente said: "It's an unusual case. We wish all of our criminals acted this way, it would make our job a lot easier.
