Hut, hut
A Mount Pleasant man on June 15 reportedly threw a cup containing “an unknown liquid” at the staff of a Coleman Boulevard bar. According to town police, the man was immediately tackled and knocked unconscious by multiple bouncers. He wasn’t arrested, but when he comes to, someone needs to make sure that guy never joins a football team.
All hands on deck
A West Ashley man on June 17 told Charleston police someone stole his truck after he left it parked with the keys inside next to a local bank. The man told police an unloaded rifle and his dog were in the truck. Well, that settles it. We’re formally demanding the police get every officer involved and do not rest until this man’s dog is found safe and sound. Pro tip: Check hospitals for people bitten by dogs.
Not good enough
A North Charleston man on June 20 reportedly stole more than $2,000 of “fragrance” from a Dorchester Road beauty store. Look, any way we slice this, it isn’t adding up. Valentine’s Day was too long ago; Christmas is too far away; it’s too big for a birthday and not big enough for an apology. Whatever the plan is, buddy, good luck.
Just a little fun
A Mount Pleasant police officer on June 14 watched a black motorcycle speed past him while lane splitting on the Wando Bridge. The officer reportedly clocked the motorcycle at over 130 mph before it reached a distance too far to register. On a hunch, the officer drove to a nearby car meet, where he found the biker in question and arrested him. His big defense? He “just wanted to have some fun.”
Rock solid
Charleston police on June 18 confronted a West Ashley man after receiving a call about him drinking alcohol on the patio of a Savannah Highway coffee shop. When police arrived to question him, the man simply slurred, “Well, you didn’t see me drink it.” You know what, that’s fair. So instead of a citation for open container, it was just for public intoxication.
