A Disney vacation turned sour when guests at Disneyland had to step in and help restrain an out-of-control man… and it was caught on video. The video shows the man being restrained outside of the "Tower of Terror" ride by bellhops. An elderly security guard pepper sprays him and he comes out swinging. Guests eventually have to step in to hold the man down until backup got there. There's no word on what led to the fight but hecklers and guest comments on the video give clues that he may have been a pain for quite some time.
A 24-year-old Phoenix man dropped his gun and fired a shot in the bathroom of Walmart. He began to sit down when his Ruger .357-caliber Western-style revolver fell out of its holster and fired a round. The bullet went through the stall door, hit a wall, ricocheted into a light on the ceiling, then back onto the floor toward a man standing at a urinal. The bullet struck the floor about 5 feet from the other man. Police did not arrest the clumsy gun owner, but they will ask prosecutors to charge him with one count of endangerment.
A Virginia woman likes to try new foods, but she got more than she bargained for after ordering the bleu ball pizza at the BlowToad restaurant. She said, "It had a funny name but didn't think too much about it. Later, I came to find out that the steak was bull testicles." She's mad because the waiter never explained to her that the swing steak on the menu was actually testicles. The General Manager said, "We don't try to purposely hide it." Apparently, the pizza is one of the restaurant's most popular dishes.

The husband of Vero Beach Florida’s Marian Searchwell returned home to find his bride of just five months in their bed. While this would please most newlywed husbands, Marian’s other half requested that she leave the bed because he and the female visitor he brought home wanted to use it. The accounts of the ensuing domestic violence disturbance vary from this point, but it ended with Marian being arrested after police found abrasions on her husband’s neck.

It wasn’t just the buns of the so-called ‘skateboard bandit’ that were busted.

Police in Atlantic Beach, South Carolina received reports of an SUV that kept stopping in the road. When police caught up with the vehicle, it was stopped at a traffic light that was green. Behind the wheel was Retha Pierce, who was arrested for DUI after officers found several bottles of pills in her purse and she refused to provide a urine sample when officers told her she couldn't keep it. It was Retha’s second DUI bust and during her court hearing Retha said, “It's Horry County as usual with their corruption and with their evilness trying to do onto Retha Pierce.” If her name sounds familiar, she’s Atlantic Beach Mayor Retha Pierce.
