Apparently there was quite a string of thefts in O’Fallon, MO involving some punk kids going through cars. Never fear though, the O’Fallon Police Department have solved the case after a COPS-worthy foot chase! On 07/22/09, at approximately 3:06 AM the O’Fallon Police Department received a call from the Patriots Landing subdivision in reference to two juveniles going through a vehicle. Officers responded and a rolling perimeter was established. Sgt. Jeff Lange located the subjects and engaged them in a foot chase, taking a juvenile into custody. [Read More]

My man on the right there is about as sick as he is stupid. You see ole Rodney Swank was driving his truck down the road in his home town of O’Fallon MO on Octobor 4th of last year, when he saw a lemonade stand being run by 8 or 9, I’m assuming adorable, little girls. Swank then decided it would be a good idea to pull over and expose himself to the young entrepreneurs. [Read More]

Crazy Looking White Guy Does Crazy Stuff on the Phone

Posted on July 21, 2009 | The Editor

An Ohio man, Charles Papenfus, got a little pissed off at a St. Louis based telemarketer and he got arrested for it. I know what you are thinking, “We’ve all been there! Sure the guy probably got pretty angry, but damn I hate those telemarketers! Rabble!” …well I’d hold off before jumping on Milton’s side here: (emphasis mine) According to court documents, Charles W. Papenfus, 43, allegedly told a sales representative during a May 18 telephone call that he would burn down the building and kill the employees and their families. [Read More]

Update on the KFNS Producer Arrested on Rape Charges

Posted on July 8, 2009 | The Editor

Back when Punching Kitty first launched in January, one of our top stories, and one that is still right up there on the top traffic-getting list, was about Ryan Huff, at the time a producer for local sport-talk KFNS being held on rape charges. Because this story has gotten so much traffic, and since no other news outlet seems to be keeping track, we thought it was a good time for an update to the story. [Read More]

Breaking: KFNS Producer Arrested on Rape Charges

Posted on January 25, 2009 | The Editor

This post has an update, see below! Ryan Huff, a Production Director and Producer for all sports-talk station KFNS (590 AM) was arrested in Arnold and charges were filed that included raping underage girls. Apparently Huff met the girls on “an internet chatroom,” which could mean anything since I’m guessing the reporter on the KMOV video I watched doesn’t know the difference between this very site and and actual “internet chatroom.
