MOM TO DEADLY DOUGHERTY GANG: 'TURN YOURSELF IN'

"DEADLY DOUGHERTY'S"
THE MOM of the brother and sister team who allegedly robbed a bank and shot up a police car has begged them to "give themselves up."
Barbara Bell has urged her son, 21-year-old Ryan Edward Dougherty his brother Stanley Dylan Dougherty, 26, and daughter 29-year-old Grace Lee E. Dougherty to "turn themselves in."
Armed with at least one AK47, the terrible trio dubbed "the deadly Dougherty's" are accused of walking into a bank in Valdosta, GA, firing shots into the ceiling and demanding cash.   
Then one of them grabbed an undisclosed amount of money and they escape in a white Subaru Imprezza. 
Earlier in the day a police officer in Florida tried to pull the group over for speeding, but rather than pull over they had fired at least 20 shots at the terrified officer.
Thankfully the officer was not injured, although his car was disabled, meaning they were able to get away, but one of the group then texted Bell telling her: "we all have to die."
Sheriff Chris Nocco of Pasco County, Fla told FOX 13 fears the group are on a "violent mission."

IDIOT TRAVIS WARD STOLE AMBULANCE AT FIRE SCENE

DUMMY
DEFINITELY one for the "Dear Stupid" file. 
This is dumbass Travis Ward who tried to steal an ambulance which parked outside the scene of a raging house fire. 
The 28-year-old idiot, told cops he was unsuprisingly high on pot at the time, when he spotted the unsupervised vehicle, which had been left running to keep it cool for anyone seeking help. 
So the idiot decided to take it. 
He got a whole two blocks, smashing into powers poles and walls during his joyride, before eventually coming to a halt.
Fortunately the ambulance wasn't needed during the blaze which started around 4am on Sunday morning at a house in Phoenix, AZ.   
Homeowner Edward Huth told KSAZ: "I heard a pop, crack in the back of the house. Some gentleman come and bang on the door said, "Get out. Get out. You’re on fire."
Flames were shooting out of his attic, and smoke filled the home, but he couldn't get his family out because the key to the security door was nowhere to be found.
But in an extraordinary act of heroism the stranger smashed through a window, ripping his hands to shreds, to get the family out.  
“We said, ‘Thank you, and God bless you,’” Huth added.At that point the ambulance crew at that point became victims themselves.

STEAMROLLER JOYRIDE END IN TEARS - REALLY??

BEFORE you ask the answer is yes - there was alcohol involved.
A man took a steamroller on a joyride and somehow ended up with his ankle pinned underneath it after losing control.
Cops in Sudbury, Ontario said somehow he'd tipped it and it had landed on top of his leg, which was severely injured by the crushing weight.
A police source said: "As idiotic crime goes this one is pretty much top of the list. He was clearly drunk and thought it was good idea. Needless to say he sobered up very quickly when it fell on him.
"It would be funny, of his injuries weren't so severe."    
The man is facing charges of theft and impaired driving when he gets out of hospital.

KNOB THE BUILDER: MAN STEALS DIGGER FOR JOYRIDE

DRUNK?? REALLY?
ARTISTS IMPRESSION
IF your going to go for a joyride stealing a huge digger probably isn't the best idea if you want to get away from the cops.
But it's unclear whether Adam Bergenty was really thinking about escaping or what really was on the drunken 22-year-old's mind. After stealing the backhoe he knocked down three mail boxes, two street lights and an above ground utility box, cops said.
Needless to say he failed a field sobriety test and refused to take a breathalyzer, so he's been charged with driving
under the influence.
But that's the least of his worries as he's also been slapped with first-degree criminal mischief, evading responsibility, interfering with an officer, reckless driving and using a motor vehicle without permission.
Bergenty stole the vehicle using a master key that he had kept from a previous job, police said.
