Jeff LPH 3 sends this one in;

An irate Florida barber shot at two clients who confronted him about not keeping their appointments, police said.

John Digiovanni, 35, of Boca Raton, was arrested Wednesday on two counts of attempted murder after a man told police he shot at him and his friend in the parking lot of the First United Methodist Church, WPTV reported.

The victims told detectives Digiovanni had scheduled appointments to cut their hair but didn’t show up for them in the past two weeks, police said.

One of the scorned customers reached out to Digiovanni on Monday about making the appointments and not keeping them, prompting the barber to start yelling and threatening him, police said.

Florida man arrested after allegedly hitting deputy in face with a Bible

The KoB sent me this one, which is full of righteous vengeance.

A Florida man was arrested last Tuesday after he allegedly threw a Bible at a sheriff’s deputy, according to reports.

Authorities were called to a residence in Summerfield, which is northwest of Orlando, on Sept. 22, after a neighbor reported a break-in at his home.

Deputies said when they arrived, they found Robert Otis Hoskins, 39, dressed in his underwear, shouting something to the effect, “I condemn you.” They said he threw a Bible that hit a deputy in the face.

Hoskins was tased and taken into custody following a brief struggle, Orlando’s WKMG-TV reported. The arrest report said the suspect defecated on himself at the scene. A deputy wrote in the report that the suspect was asked why he broke into the home, and he replied, “Because God told me to.”

Authorities said there was damage to a door at the neighbor’s residence, and a window had been broken. The alleged victim’s wife said $50 worth of clothing was stolen.

She also told deputies that the suspect had a “drug problem,” the arrest report said.

Drug problem? You don’t say?

Drunken Texas man charged after letting 13-year-old stepdaughter drive him for ice cream

We’ve all been there. You’re drunk and just really, really have a craving, but there’s nobody there to drive you. This guy found the solution…Well, a solution.

A Texas man was charged after designating his 13-year-old stepdaughter to drive him for ice cream while he was drunk, a report said Wednesday.

Javier Martinez-Aguilar, 42, of Lubbock, was indicted on a felony charge of endangering a child and criminal negligence on Tuesday, KAMC reported.

Martinez-Aguilar was in the passenger seat of an SUV when he and the girl were pulled over Sept. 9 after failing to yield to a police vehicle, according to a police report obtained by the station. The report said the police car had nearly crashed into the SUV the girl was driving.

When police approached the vehicle and asked the driver for a license, she said she didn’t have one before informing the officer that she was only 13 years old, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported.

“She was driving her stepfather to get ice cream because he was drunk,” the police report said.

Martinez-Aguilar appeared so intoxicated that he struggled to get his driver’s license out of his wallet, according to the report.

Connecticut man claims DNA was dropped onto crime scene by airplane

A Connecticut man charged in a violent robbery outside a Chinese restaurant last year told detectives his DNA was dropped onto the crime scene by airplane in an effort to frame him, according to multiple reports.

Gregory Blue, 38, was arrested last Friday in connection with the Dec. 16 incident in the parking lot of the Golden Palace Chinese Restaurant in Montville after authorities linked his DNA to a bloodstain found near the crime scene, Norwich Bulletin reported.

Blue originally said police planted the evidence, but he later changed his story.

“Blue continued to allege that a phlebotomist who took his blood years ago dropped his DNA at the scene via airplane,” an arrest warrant affidavit said.

Patrol officers originally responded to the restaurant after 10 p.m., where an unidentified 45-year-old victim said a man, identified by police as Blue, had asked for a light for a cigarette.

The man said Blue then pulled out what appeared to be a gun and demanded “everything you have, or I am going to kill you,” the warrant stated, according to the Bulletin.

When the suspect briefly pointed the gun away, a fight ensued. During the crime, the victim said he was struck in the head with the suspect’s weapon.

The man then wrestled the gun away before the suspect took out a knife and stabbed him in the side, according to the Connecticut Post.

Soon after, the victim said he was able to turn the knife towards Blue and stab him, leading to a chase that saw the suspect jump a guardrail and enter a wooded area, the warrant said.

Blue was later identified as a suspect based on DNA results from evidence recovered at the crime scene, as well as the victim’s description of him, according to authorities.

Detectives interviewed Blue on June 29 when they came to take a swab sample of his DNA while he was incarcerated at Corrigan Correctional Center in Montville for a separate crime, the paper reported.

During that interview, he denied his involvement in the December crime, reported Fox. Furthermore, Blue accused police and the phlebotomist of planting DNA evidence at the scene, that is, until he developed the “airplane story.”
