Drive-by horse shooter jailed for Amish buggy attack

Winner

LANCASTER, PENNSYLVANIA -- A drive-by shooter who gunned down a horse pulling a buggy with an Amish family inside has been sentenced to one to two years behind bars by a Pennsylvania judge.
A married couple and their three young children were in the buggy when Timothy Diggs Jr. pulled alongside it and opened fire.
Blaming cough medicine abuse for his behaviour, Diggs apologized for the shooting as he pleaded guilty to cruelty to animals, reckless endangerment and also entered pleas on several unrelated charges.
But Lancaster County Judge David Ashworth was less than impressed with his apology and sentenced Diggs in the aggravated range under state guidelines.
He warned Diggs that if he ended up back in court, "I'll put you in jail for as long as I can."

Horse trots into police station, becomes mane event

He wasn't the mane suspect in any of their cases and it appears that he just wanted to be a good neigh-bour. Either way, we pity the officer who was saddled with taking home this horse after it trotted into a British police station.

Quite why the nosey pony thought it was a good idea to trot into the station in the North West of England is unclear, but Superintendent Peter Cowcroft said: "At neigh point did the horse pose a risk to security and appeared to be a well cared for animal.
