Guy Breaks in to Ritz Carlton Room to Molest 9 Year-Old

 Posted on March 7, 2011  |  The Editor

Tricking a fancy hotel front desk person and kicking down doors are kinds of determination you really don’t see much of these days, which is too bad in a way, but in this particular way, it’s horrifyingly insane as it relates to a Pennsylvania man’s plan to break in to the room of a 9 year-old girl to cop a feel. Clayton Police say Daniel Hughes, 42, of Conshohocken, Pennsylvania approached the the front desk around 4:00 a. [Read More]

Maybe Just Don’t Worry About Line Cutters in North St. Louis

 Posted on March 1, 2011  |  The Editor

So you’re waiting in line to by your booze…at 10pm on a Sunday…and a dude rolls in and cuts in line. What do you do? Well if you’re in St. Peters, you probably do the old passive agressive “Ugh! Really?” Where you’re kinda talking to the guy behind you, but not really. If you’re really ballsy, and since you’re getting booze at 10pm on a Sunday we’re guessing you might be, maybe you tell the guy what’s up…get in his face a little bit. [Read More]

The killer was trying to hide in Chicago, but St. Louis police found and charged him with first-degree murder, stemming from a altercation five year ago. Andre McAfee is accused of killing Charles Barnes in early 2006 by beating him repeatedly with a skillet. Court documents say McAfee hit Barnes in the head and on his body with the skillet several times, and that McAfee’s DNA was found on the handle of the blood-covered skillet that was found next to Barnes’ body.

The Old Fake Policeman Bit Just Keeps on Working

 Posted on February 25, 2011  |  The Editor

A perv is pretending to be a police officer in Carroliton, Illinois so he can pull over ladies and frisk them. It’s not a new plan, but you can’t argue with results. Police say it happened on Highway 67 going north out of Carrollton Saturday around five in the afternoon. A woman spotted a vehicle behind her with flashing blue lights. She pulled over at the city park. A man dressed like a cop told her to get out of the car. [Read More]

2010 Census: So It Seems People Do Hate Being Robbed, Mugged and Shot

 Posted on February 25, 2011  |  The Editor

Update: Yes, as pointed out in the comments and online, there are other reasons for the population drop: Schools being a big one, and the economy being another. However, crime seems the most universal and the worse, and more specific to St. Louis, so we focused on that. Original post follows… The 2010 Census numbers are in! Totally out! All kinds of numbers in them…big numbers…yup…lots. of. numbers. Ok, screw it. [Read More]

Woman Shot at 10 Year-Old’s Birthday Party

 Posted on February 24, 2011  |  The Editor

A woman hosting her 10 year-old child’s birthday party Wednesday was shot after a bullet came through the front window and struck her in the arm. Mom will be fine, but clearly a scary moment since there were a few other adults and 15 kids in the house at the time, so easily any of them could be dead. The police have no leads, but are assuming the shooter was on foot…so there’s that. [Read More]

Guy Stabs Parents After an Argument About His Unemployment

 Posted on February 23, 2011  |  The Editor

A Jefferson County man beat and stabbed his parents after a fight about his unemployment became violent. Let that be a lesson to the rest of you parents! If your weird-looking 30-something kid with beady little eyes starts to get heated when you ask him why he can gain 70 levels in Word of Warcraft in a week, but can’t get a job at McDonalds, just let him be. At that point, poisoning his morning Doughnut Pizza might be the safer move. [Read More]

St. Louis Machete Thief Doesn’t Get Far

 Posted on February 22, 2011  |  The Editor

The plan was perfect. Right at midnight, grab the machete, run in to the 7-Eleven, get the cash and jump back in the van. The machete was a really nice touch and will allow a lot of other sites to use stills from that movie of the same name as all-too-obvious graphic, but too bad the clerk saw your get away vehicle! [T]he clerk saw him get into a large white van, which drove away, police said. [Read More]
