Man drops ID info after allegedly trying to rob Bellingham bank<\/h3>\n

A Spokane man was arrested Friday, Oct. 21, after allegedly attempting to rob a bank in the 1500 block of Cornwall Avenue in Bellingham \u2014 and he led police right to him.<\/p>\n

Mark D. Gotcher, 65, was charged with attempted first-degree robbery after allegedly walking into the bank Friday around 10:30 a.m. and saying, \u201cThis is a bank robbery,\u201d Bellingham Police Lt. Claudia Murphy told The Bellingham Herald in an email Monday, Oct. 24.<\/p>\n

Gotcher did not get any money, according to police.<\/p>\n

Vegan woman left ‘almost in tears’ after eating meat-based Burger King meal<\/h3>\n

Someone find me the world’s smallest fiddle!<\/p>\n

A woman claims she was left “almost in tears” after realizing she was biting into a Burger King chicken nugget, initially believing it was a plant-based item.<\/p>\n

“When I ate it and realized, it made me feel sick. I was nearly in tears. I have health issues as well, so I don\u2019t want to be putting meat in my body,” Lianna Hutchins of Bournemouth, England, told the Daily Echo following the incident.<\/p>\n

Hutchins said she had placed a \u00a345 order (approximately $52) for her family on October 14 and said the smell and texture of the nugget was different from that of a plant-based one. The lifelong vegetarian told the outlet she bit into the meal and “thought to myself this doesn\u2019t taste vegan.”<\/p>\n

Hutchins said she turned to a vegan lifestyle three years ago, avoiding eggs, dairy, products, and meat as a result.<\/p>\n

“I couldn\u2019t believe it; with Natasha\u2019s Law you\u2019d think everybody would be trained and be aware of food allergies,” Hutchins told the Daily Echo.<\/p>\n

The UK’s Natasha’s Law went into effect in October 2021, requiring food businesses to include a full list of ingredients and allergens on labeling for prepackaged foods available for direct sale on the business premises.<\/p>\n

“Burger King UK acknowledges the customer\u2019s concern and apologizes for the impact this has caused,” a Burger King spokesperson told the outlet. “After further investigation, we believe all the appropriate steps were taken, and there were no signs of cross-contamination. We will be reaching out to the customer to provide assistance and will be working to ensure all necessary measures and staff training are reinforced.”<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to Burger King but did not hear back in time for publication.<\/p>\n

Hutchins stated the fast-food branch did not take the situation seriously, saying she had to take herself away from her family meal and report the incident over the phone.<\/p>\n

“I contacted the restaurant and the manager was very dismissive. He put me on the phone with the man who packed my order. He told me to go to the head office,” Hutchins told the Daily Echo. “We eventually got a refund on only the chicken nuggets, which was \u00a35, but they didn\u2019t refund the rest of the meal. I couldn\u2019t eat the rest of the meal, I felt sick.”<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to Hutchins for additional comment but did not hear back at the time of this writing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

2 suspects steal from store, then can\u2019t find their car keys, Centralia police say<\/h3>\n

A man and woman from Portland were booked on suspicion of second-degree theft over the weekend after they allegedly stole $1,700 in merchandise from a Nike outlet store, according to Centralia police.<\/p>\n

But either in the store or outside of it, the two theft suspects lost their car keys and couldn\u2019t leave, according to police.<\/p>\n

About 6:50 p.m. Friday, police were dispatched to the 100 block of West High Street after a report of disorderly conduct, Chief Stacy Denham said.<\/p>\n

The man and woman, ages 57 and 49, apparently had stolen shoes and clothes, but couldn\u2019t find their car keys. They then went back inside the store to look for the keys and ultimately got into an argument with store staff, accusing them of taking their keys, Denham said.<\/p>\n

Employees responded that they did not have their keys, he said.<\/p>\n

It was during the argument that police were called to the scene and eventually found the stolen merchandise, Denham said.<\/p>\n

He said Tuesday he wasn\u2019t sure whether the keys were found.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Pentagon Force Protection Agency officer arrested for dealing cocaine, police say<\/h3>\n

A Defense Department police officer is facing criminal charges after he was arrested for distributing illicit drugs while off duty, according to local authorities.<\/p>\n

Police in Arlington County, Va., where the Pentagon is located, said the officer \u2014 Eric Welch \u2014 was arrested Friday after investigators witnessed him buying illegal narcotics. They said he planned to sell those drugs as part of a trafficking scheme.<\/p>\n

Welch is a member of the Pentagon Force Protection Agency and was not on duty when he was taken into custody. Authorities said he was carrying a firearm at the time of his arrest.<\/p>\n

Arlington officials said investigators had been watching Welch for illegal drug activity.<\/p>\n

\u201cDetectives initiated a narcotics investigation after receiving information regarding a suspect possibly distributing cocaine in Arlington County,\u201d county police said in a statement Monday. \u201cDuring the course of the investigation, detectives identified Welch as a suspect and obtained evidence confirming involvement in narcotics distribution.\u201d<\/p>\n

Authorities said Welch was arrested on a street in Arlington about 2 miles southwest of the Pentagon. Police later searched his house nearby in Alexandria, where officials said they found more drugs and more firearms.<\/p>\n

Welch, 33, is being held without bond on multiple charges, including possession with intent to distribute while armed. The PFPA said in a statement that he\u2019s been placed on administrative leave.<\/p>\n

There are hundreds of officers in the Pentagon Force Protection Agency, which is responsible for security at the Pentagon and several other defense-related federal buildings, including the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces.<\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t immediately known whether detectives are looking for other possible suspects or whether they believe anyone else from the PFPA was involved. City officials said the investigation is ongoing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

American driver following GPS gets stuck on stairs of Bavarian church near Army training base<\/h3>\n
\"\"
We won the war. We can park wherever the fuck we want. That’s how “unconditional surrender” works!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

St. Aegidius parish church has been renovated many times since the 12th century, but no one ever adorned it with an American muscle car until recently.<\/p>\n

A 20-year-old American was driving through construction near the market square in the small Bavarian village of Vilseck on Thursday when his navigation system led him down the wrong path, Vilseck police said Wednesday. Police did not disclose the American\u2019s identity.<\/p>\n

The navigation guidance took the driver down the church steps, where the car got stuck, police said.<\/p>\n

A towing company removed the car the same day. There was no damage to the stairs, and Vilseck police let the newly licensed driver off with a warning.<\/p>\n

Pictures of the late-model Dodge Charger parked on the church\u2019s steps soon made their way into regional newspapers after police announced the incident last week.<\/p>\n

Those reports didn\u2019t mention the driver\u2019s nationality. But U.S. soldiers in the town, which hosts a portion of the largest Army training ground in Europe, came to their own conclusions.<\/p>\n

That make and model are rarely seen at dealerships in Europe other than those on U.S. bases.<\/p>\n

The photos soon showed up on U.S. Army WTF! Moments social media sites under the headline, \u201cNothing more American than parking your 17% interest dodge charger on the steps of a German Church #usausausa.\u201d<\/p>\n

The post attracted more than 800 mostly snarky comments, some of which thought that 17% might be a good rate for a young soldier with little or no credit.<\/p>\n

The 2022 Charger\u2019s sticker price of $30,940 is a few thousand dollars more than the basic annual pay of a private first class with less than three years of service.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
