Police light

Authorities said that one of the suspects tortured a 7-year-old boy during home invasion.

COUNCIL CHRONICLE – Fort Bend County deputies are trying to identify four suspects who, allegedly, broke into a home on early Monday morning. According to the surveillance footage, the individual tortured a 7-year-old child during the home invasion to force his father into revealing the location of his valuables.

Home Invasion Suspects Struck Father, Nearly Drowned His Son

Caitlin Espinosa, the Fort Bend County Public Information Officer, declared that the events that transpired on Monday shocked her colleagues. Even seasoned officers were appalled to hear the 7-year-old child call for help, while a suspect dunked him in bathtub water.

According to Espinosa, on Monday, a man called 911 to report a home invasion. Upon arriving at the indicated address, the lawmen found an adult male with facial injuries and a soaking-wet infant. Both were taken to the hospital. The child was treated for water in his lungs.

Based on the father’s testimony, three suspects wearing hoods and carrying handguns broke into the house and demanded his valuables. The man told the police that one of them struck him in the head with the gun.

While one of the suspects ravaged the home in search for valuables, another one went upstairs and filled the tub with water. According to the authorities, the suspect dragged the child upstairs and spent the next 40 minutes dunking the child’s head in water in an attempt to intimidate his father.

There’s an audio recording available which captures the gut-wrenching screams of the boy as the suspect nearly drowns him. Public Information Officer Espinosa declared that the recording is too disturbing to be made public.

Conclusion

The home invasion suspects left the man’s home carrying cash, jewelry, smartphones, and a set of car keys. Crime Stoppers offered a $25,000 to anyone with information on the suspects.

Russian Woman Horrified to Find Out That She Had Parasite Crawling Under Her Skin

June 22, 2018 By Ben Beckstrom Leave a Comment

parasite

Russian woman said that the parasite traveled from the left eye to her upper lip.

COUNCIL CHRONICLE – And for our weekly trip to Nopeville, we give you the story of a 32-year-old woman from Russia who had the shock of her life when she realized that the lump on top of her left eye wasn’t really a lump. A short trip to the doctor made her realize that the thing was actually a parasite moving back and forth under her skin.

Parasite Considered Safe for Humans and Easy to Remove, Doctors Declared

The 32-year-old woman from Russia declared in a social media post that everything started shortly after she returned from a trip to rural Moscow. She recalls getting bitten on more than one occasion by mosquitoes.

Several days after returning home, the Russian woman noticed a small lump just above the left eye. She didn’t pay attention to it, at first, but she started posting pictures of the bump of her social media channel just in case.

Over the next few days, the Russian woman came to realize that the thing on her face was not a bump. In a series of time-lapse photos, the woman revealed how her ‘lump’ traveled from her left eye to the bottom part of her upper lip.

She went to the nearest hospital to have a doctor take a look at her bump. A brief physical examination revealed that the nodule was caused by a Dirofilaria repens, a parasitic nematode that usually likes carnivores like sea lions, cats, wolves, dogs or foxes.

Conclusion

The doctor who consulted the Russia woman declared that the parasite ‘accidentally’ infested her. However, it would appear that the treatment is pretty straightforward – surgery to remove the critter.

Since the nematode cannot live inside humans, it can’s lay eggs. This means that all you have to do to get rid of it is to pull it out or rather have a doctor do it for you.

A Birmingham man said he lost confidence in NHS after freak accident that left paralyzed.

A Birmingham man claims he got paralyzed from the waist down minutes after receiving a clean bill of health from the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.  The freak accident left the man unable to care for himself and his two children.

Birmingham Man Said He Had to Move in with a Friend after the Accident

Meet Chris Benton, a 28-year-old Birmingham resident, and father of two. Mr. Benton’s life took a completely different turn at the beginning of May, shortly after being admitted to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

In a recent interview granted to a Birmingham news outlet, Mr. Benton declared that his tragic story began on the 2nd of May. He told the reporter that he was at home, with his father and two kids, when he experienced an epileptic seizure. His father dialed the emergency number. An ambulance arrived at the man’s Longbridge home and later transported him to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

Chris said that given the severity of his seizure, the doctors had decided to keep him overnight for observation. He received a letter of discharge on the 3rd of May and asked to vacate the hospital bed.

Despite Chris telling his doctors that he still feels weak, they were adamant about their decision. The Birmingham man stepped out of the hospital, took a few steps, and lost consciousness. He remembers waking up in the resuscitation room, where the doctors told him that he had another epileptic seizure.

Regrettably, during the latest epileptic bout, Mr. Benton fell and hit his head on the pavement. Even more regrettable is the fact that this freak accident left him paralyzed from the neck down.

Conclusion

Benton declared that after the accident he had to leave behind his apartment and move in with a friend since he lives on the 7th floor. The man’s now thinking about suing the hospital for discharging him too soon.

Mexico Man Gets Red Spot on Palate After Performing too Much Oral Sex

June 15, 2018 By Ben Beckstrom Leave a Comment

soft and hard palate

A man from Mexico developed an erythema on his palate due to performing too much oral sex.

COUNCIL CHRONICLE – A man from Mexico was told to play it cool for a while after his dentist found a mysterious red spot on his palate. With a little bit of research, his dentist concluded that red spot was the unfortunate denouement of performing too much oral sex.

Red Spot Associated with Oral Sex Discovered During Routine Visit

When we think about sex-related injuries, usually the image of something actually getting broken during sex pops to mind. As it turns out, the case of an unnamed man from Mexico would make medical history.

Dr. Luiz Albert Mendez, one of the doctors involved in the Mexico man ‘love mark’ case and the one who wrote about him in the BMJ Case Reports, declared that this has to be one of the most unusual sex-related injuries.

According to Dr. Mendez, the individual went to a dental clinic after one of his fillings came loose. Upon examining his oral cavity, the man’s dentist found a red spot on the man’s soft palate.

Of course, the dentist was puzzled by the red spot because it did not resemble any known type of injury. The team who assessed the patient’s erythema (that’s the medical term for the man’s red spot) concluded that the red spot was due to oral sex.

Yes, the red spot on the man’s soft palate was the unfortunate result of him having too much fun. Dr. Mendez explained that such a hematoma could appear if penis’ glands touch the soft palate. He also said that this type of injury is consistent with blunt trauma.

Conclusion

The patient admitted having sex three days before his appointment and that he often performs fellatio after consuming marijuana and meth. Case closed!

The man was sent home with the promise that the red spot would vanish on its own after a couple of days.

Influential US Stock Broker Probed in Death of Worker in Fallout Shelter Fire

June 4, 2018 By Ben Beckstrom Leave a Comment

fallout shelter

Influential US stockbroker left employee to die in fallout shelter fire.

COUNCIL CHRONICLE – On the 25th of May, Daniel Beckwitt, a 27-year-old stockbroker from Washington DC, appeared before a Montgomery County court. Beckwitt, described by many as an eccentric millionaire, has to answer for the death of Askia Khafra, a 21-year-old construction worker, who died in 2017 while working on Beckwitt’s fallout shelter.

Stockbroker Built Fallout Shelter in Fear of North Korea Nuclear Missile Retaliation

According to the documents filed in court on the 25th of May, Daniel Beckwitt approached Khafra last year with a job offer.

Interestingly enough, as the prosecution revealed during Beckwitt’s hearing, the stockbroker used to communicate with his employee on a need-to-know basis.

Although Khafra knew that Beckwitt hired him to construct an underground network of tunnels and a fallout shelter, he had been in the dark about many aspects of the project.

For instance, as part of the deal, he was to be picked up and driven to work by Beckwitt. In addition, for the duration of the trip, Khafra was required to wear tinted glass, since Beckwitt did not want anyone to know the location of his shelter.

The Washington DC stockbroker has been on edge for the past couple of year due to tense ties between the US and North Korea.

Fearing a nuclear missile retaliation, Beckwitt ordered Khafra to help him construct the emergency bunker and escape tunnels.

Authorities declared that the underground tunnels stretch over 200 feet. The fallout shelter was roughly 200 feet beneath Beckwitt’s residence.

Conclusion

On the 10th of September 2017, a fire broke out in one of the underground tunnels. Beckwitt managed to escape in the nick of time but left Khafra to his fate.

The prosecution declared that Beckwitt was well aware of the fact that the tunnel maze could potentially turn into a death trap if a fire erupted.

An enraged Ohio driver was arrested for punching a strangling a teen in traffic.

COUNCIL CHRONICLE – Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office recently detained a 59-year-old man who allegedly punched an 18-year-old female driver during a road-rage incident. The victim told the authorities that the enraged Ohio driver kept flipping her off in traffic before the assault.

Enraged Ohio Driver Attempted to Stop Teenager From Calling the Authorities

On the 15th of May, Montgomery County Sheriff’s deputies arrested 59-year-old Brent Clark following a road-rage incident.

Savannah Johnson, an 18-year-old Miamisburg resident, told the authorities that she was driving her younger brother home from day-care when she Clark in the mirror.

According to the teenager, Clark was driving very close to her, honking and flipping her off. After she stopped at a traffic light, Clark allegedly got out of his car and approached Johnson’s vehicle.

As the window was rolled down, Clark punched the teen several times while her younger brother called for help. According to the teen, Clark nearly strangled her while he attempted to remove her through the car’s window.

As the traffic light turned green, Johnson bolted and managed to contact the authorities.

The teenager said that the enraged Ohio driver followed her around in his car as she was trying to dial 911.

Before fleeing, Clark allegedly backed off his car, hitting Johnson’s vehicle.

Montgomery County deputies managed to identify Clark’s vehicle after reviewing Johnson’s phone picture.

The enraged Ohio driver was later arrested and charged with assault. Given Johnson’s testimony, the authorities could upgrade his charges to attempted murder.

Conclusion

After the incident, the teenager drove to the hospital. The ER doctors decided to keep her overnight for observations, as Johnson had a minor concussion.

The teenager says that she’ll need some physical therapy to get back on her feet. Although no one else was injured during the incident, Johnson still regrets the facts that her younger brother had to watch the entire scene.

May 18, 2018 By Ben Beckstrom Leave a Comment

inking

The Swedish mother renamed her son after her botched arm tattoo.

COUNCIL CHRONICLE – A Swedish mother became somewhat of a social media star after telling the story of how her son was named. Johanna Sandstrom declared that the name she chose for her child is uncommon.

Swedish Mother Named Boy after Misspelled Tattoo

Meet Johanna Sandstrom, a Swedish mother of two who recently shared her inking experience.

The woman, who also shared her story with a Swedish publication, said that she and her husband were amused by the whole thing.

Sandstrom’s story begins with a trip to the local tattoo parlor. The woman, who only recently gave birth to a boy, wanted to honor her family by having her children’s names inked on her arm. She even came up with the design and was careful enough to write their names on a piece of paper.

The names the tattoo artist was supposed to ink on the woman’s arm were Nora and Kevin.

After returning from the parlor, the Swedish mother got the shock of her life when she discovered that the man misspelled her son’s name.

As Sandstrom declared, the man wrote “Kelvin” instead of “Kevin.” The woman returned to the tattoo parlor to have the artist correct the mistake.

Of course, the man laughed it out and offered Sandstrom a refund. He also offered to redo the tattoo.

When Sandstrom got home, she discussed the offer with her husband. The Swedish mother declared that the perspective of having to undergo several painful tattoo-removal sessions was not at all enticing.

Conclusion

And so, she did the next best thing – changing her son’s name from Kevin to Kelvin. Sandstrom said that her son’s name does have a nice ring to it, for it is most uncommon.

The Swedish mother’s ink adventure raked a lot of likes and was shared all over social media.

Unloaded Gun

The Oklahoma man was spotted by one of his coworkers while shooting the family dogs.

COUNCIL CHRONICLE – A man from Harrah, a small suburb 22 miles east of Oklahoma City, could spend the next years behind bars after he allegedly shot two dogs to discipline his out-of-control daughters. According to the arrest warrant, the Oklahoma man, Jeffrey Don Edwards, became upset after he returns home for work and saw that his daughters neglected to wash the dishes.

Oklahoma Man Said All Allegations Are Fake

On Tuesday, Harrah law enforcement officials took 35-year-old into custody. The man was charged with two counts of aggravated animal cruelty.

According to the authorities, Danielle Depee, Edwards’ former wife, was the one who got in touch with the police after her brother told her about the man’s brutal way of dealing with misbehaving children.

Edwards divorced his wife in 2007. Since then, their daughters, ages 17 and 15, were living on-and-off at the man’s Harrah residents.

Following the incident, the children went to their mother and told the woman how their father got mad because they forgot to wash the dishes.

Allegedly, on Tuesday night, after Edwards arrived home, he saw that the entire house was in disarray, with dirty dishes piled in the kitchen’s sink.

Outraged, Edward told his daughters that he intends to teach them a lesson.

The following day, Edwards’ girls returned home, just to find out that the dogs went missing. Of course, Edwards told them that this is the result of their behavior.

Conclusion

Depee later found out about Edwards’ deed from her brother who heard the story from one of Edwards’ coworkers.

It would appear that the individual saw the man take the dogs behind the house and shooting them before removing the bodies.

The eyewitness added that the Oklahoma man told him that he shot the dogs to discipline his children.
