Another day in St. Louis…
A man runs his car in to a parked car, through a fence and in to the side of a family’s home Tuesday night. It’s not really his fault though, the driver had been shot a few times right before all of that:
A car that smashed into a north St. Louis home late Tuesday was being driven by a man who suffering from gunshot wounds, police say.

A convenience store in Imperial, MO in Jefferson County had an interesting story to tell Sunday night after one of their customers tried to steal a pack of Starbursts. The suspect isn’t very good at this whole stealing thing since the store clerk noticed the theft attempt and confronted the perp. During the confrontation, another dude pulled out a knife and threatened to kill the clerk…
Despite our previous thoughts on the matter, it turns out that one doesn’t have to know what role something fills in order to steal it. Take for instance a Washington Park man that was electrocuted and subsequently killed Saturday morning when he tried to steal copper wire from an Ameren Illinois substation.
When their service people arrived at the site of the outtage they found the dead man, whom police have not yet identified. Busch said 530 residences in Washington Park, Fairmont City, Venice and East St. Louis were without power until shortly after 8 a.m. Saturday. The substation was a crime scene so Ameren’s repair crew had to wait for the police to finish investigating before they could restore power.

Joseph Emil Klug has two things that will follow him to the grave:
Where were we? Ah yes, the other reason why no one likes this guy…
[Read More]The perpetrator of last week’s armed robbery of a “cash store” (translation: ghetto bank) is still on the loose. In an effort to bring the criminal to justice, the Highland Police have released surveillance photos of her getaway car and a sketch of the subject.
This is where we would be like “Bam!” and show it to you, but we freaking know you peeked! You already know the sketch is horrible. Frankly you take all the fun out of this.

We like to take digs at St. Charles county on here from time to time but one thing we have really grown to love about St. Chuck are the street names out there. Every name is so wistful with a hint of lame. Looking at a map is like flipping through a paint color sample booklet: Willow Road, Morningside Drive, Lindy’s Landing, Motherhead Road…there are so many new roads popping up out there it’s clear people stopped giving a shit about how dumb the name is a long time ago, if anyone can think of anything not taken in a 15 mile radius they print up a street sign.
A St. Charles mother was searching through the state’s sex registered sex offender list, something we are apt to do as well from time to time, and found that one lived in a near by apartment complex…and then she found one more…in that same apartment complex…and another and a bunch more after that actually. All told, 17 convicted sex offenders live in that same complex in St. Charles.
This gentleman to the right with a five-o-clock shadow at 11am thought it would be a good idea to pose as a student to send nasty little text messages to underage girls. Can’t imagine how the wheels came of this seemingly perfect plan…
Bobby Smith, 32, of Pontoon Beach, IL, was charged with 2 counts of solicitation to meet a child.
Smith was indicating that he was a student named “Stevie Smith,” at the Granite City High School. Smith was soliciting sexual acts from the females in the text messages.

KMOV has been reporting on the story of Dan Peterson, a Berkeley police officer being accused of molesting a 15-year old girl. It’s not looking good for Peterson either since his own department found enough evidence to prompt an arrest and nearly immediate firing.
Thursday [Dan Peterson] was released from jail until prosecutors review the case. Peterson’s former chief tells News 4’s Maggie Crane why he fired him.

If you felt a little extra safe in your cozy bed last night its a freaking miracle because this town has so much crime you can’t be in a balloon race without getting your car jacked, and now the Mayor is calling out the Police publicly because he believes the crime is even higher than the cops say it is. Someone in Detroit that just got stabbed fell down and is bleeding on a copy of USA Today, started reading about this bullshit and is laughing at all of this right now.
