Stupidity Abounds

A couple of recent newpaper articles have me wondering just how stupid people can get. For all of you intelligence-challenged out there, here are two pieces of advice:

1: If you are an escaped prisoner, don't call 911 for anything!

"A man listed as an escapee from Luzerne County for more than two years was arrested Wednesday morning after he called 911 to report a domestic argument he was having with his girlfriend in a Toftrees hotel room, police reported. Patton Township police responded, and a routine check at the scene revealed that in September 2006, Dixon failed to return to Luzerne County Prison from a work release program, police said in a news release. He was taken into custody without incident and placed in Centre County jail to await extradition to Luzerne County."


2: Dont drive drunk even one time in an evening, let alone two!

"State College police arrested a woman twice Saturday morning on drunken driving charges. The woman was first stopped by police about 1:20 a.m. on South Atherton Street. She parked her car in a lot on the 1200 block while police booked her on DUI charges. Police say the woman then got a ride back to her car and tried to drive it home about 4 a.m. Police got her before she could leave the parking lot. The woman was arrested again, and now faces two sets of charges related to driving drunk."
