A couple of crooks started their holiday shopping early this year when they spotted a delivery truck rolling down Palo Verde. The truck was stuffed full of plasma TVs—a fact that the thieves deduced from the huge ads on the side of the truck. After the thing came to a stop, the duo swooped in on both sides of the cabin and forced the driver out at gunpoint. When the driver reported the incident, he had no choice but to laud the crooks—not only did they make off with the TVs, but they were able to drive his unwieldy rig, too.

Nobody knows what she was afraid of, exactly, but a woman unleashed her terrornoia upon hearing a knock at her front door. Well, it wasn’t quite so immediate: peeling back the door, the woman found a harmless-looking teenage girl outside. But when the girl asked the woman if she was the lady of the house, however, she lost it—yelling at the girl and screaming for her to leave, eventually hurling threats at the young girl. Of course, it didn’t take much time for the teen to take off—she had saner people to sell her magazine subscriptions to.
