Buster

Claiming that his food order was not properly cooked, an aggrieved customer struck a Wawa worker with a piece of chicken “covered in a spicy Nashville sauce that got into the victim’s eye,” say cops who busted the alleged poultry pelter.

The 1:20 AM confrontation yesterday at a Wawa convenience store in St. Petersburg, Florida resulted in the arrest of Daniel Palomino, 32, on a misdemeanor battery charge, according to court records.

Palomino, police say, became upset “because he believed that [the chicken] was not cooked completely.” He then confronted the worker “and responded by throwing the chicken on the victim.”

While the “chicken was covered in a spicy Nashville sauce that got into the victim’s eye,” the Wawa employee did not suffer “bodily harm,” noted cops.

Palomino, who lives about a mile from the Wawa, was under the influence of alcohol when confronted by sheriff’s deputies. Seen above, he was booked into the county jail, from which he was released Sunday afternoon upon posting $500 bond.

The chicken was not seized as evidence, though police did confiscate a baseball bat from Palomino, whose rap sheet includes convictions for cocaine possession; aggravated assault; theft, possession of drug paraphernalia; criminal mischief; marijuana possession; and probation violation.

Meet Max Alexander Krejckant.

The 33-year-old Floridian was arrested Saturday after he allegedly refused to pay for a $250 tattoo he received from the Ink Godz shop in St. Petersburg.

Krejckant was reportedly under the influence when he got the Waffle House logo tattooed on his right calf.

While the restaurant chain’s emblem is yellow and black, Krejckant’s tattoo--about five inches wide--was gray and black since he did not want to pay an additional $100 for yellow ink, said Ink Godz owner Neil Marcus.

When it came time to pay for the tattoo, Krejckant (seen at right) “refused all options to satisfy his debts,” cops reported. A police frisk of Krejckant turned up only “six dollars and a driver’s license in his bag and nothing on his person.”

Charged with theft, Krejckant, who lives in nearby Clearwater, bonded out of jail last night after posting $150. He has pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor count.

In addition to his fresh Waffle House art/piece of evidence (seen below), Krejckant has several other tattoos, including a black and white tribute to Insane Clown Posse on his forearm.

Marcus said customers occasionally try to walk out without paying for tattoos, but that usually occurs during Spring Break, not the holiday season.

When a corrections officer found a “plastic cylinder” containing methamphetamine under his penis, a Florida Man denied ownership of the narcotics and claimed to be “unsure of how the package got in his underwear,” according to an arrest affidavit.

The discovery of drugs in the drawers of Caleb Phillips, 46, came yesterday evening as he “undressed from his civilian clothing and changed into his jail clothing” at the Indian River County Jail.

Phillips was arrested Monday on a warrant charging him with failure to appear in court in connection with a pending 2022 DUI case.

Seen above, Phillips reportedly told a sheriff's deputy that he “did not place the cylinder in his underwear,” but speculated that the meth was somehow “placed there while he was asleep.” Phillips apparently did not identify who purportedly accessed his underwear for the meth delivery.

While disavowing knowledge of the cylinder, Phillips “advised that he believed it" to contain Advil pills. Cops noted that the meth was inside a small package of Advil inside the cylinder, indicating that Phillips was aware of what the clear container held.

Phillips was charged with narcotics possession and smuggling contraband into a detention facility, both of which are felonies. He is being held without bond and is scheduled for arraignment on January 4.

Phillips’s rap sheet includes prior convictions for DUI; resisting arrest; marijuana possession, fleeing or eluding, possession of drug paraphernalia; leaving the scene of an accident; disorderly intoxication; and driving without a license.

A pedicab driver dressed as "The Joker" and packing a loaded 9mm handgun is facing felony charges after allegedly battering a female customer during a Halloween fare dispute in Orlando, according to Florida cops.

Investigators allege that Brandon Juwan Morris, 30, threw the victim to the ground and then rummaged through her belongings and removed cash from her wallet.

The 2:15 AM incident on November 1 occurred across from Orlando’s City Hall and triggered around 11 separate 911 calls. Morris and Debra Smoot, the victim, apparently argued about a $15 charge.

When cops arrived on the scene, Smoot was found on the ground “crying and yelling” and she “appeared to have swollen legs which were reddish.”

Smoot described her assailant as a black male “dressed as the ‘Joker’ with the word ‘Damaged’ on his forehead." In 2016’s “Suicide Squad” movie, “The Joker,” played by Jared Leto, has such a tattoo.

Two witnesses gave police statements corroborating Smoot’s account of being thrown to the ground and relieved of her money.

Seen above, Morris was quickly apprehended while still in the area on his pedicab. He claimed to not recall any altercation that evening and “constantly stated he did not put his hands on anyone,” an arrest affidavit states.

When Orlando Police Department officers searched Morris, they discovered a Taurus pistol inside an “army green crossbody bag on him.” The gun was “loaded with a magazine and had a round chambered,” a cop reported.

Morris was charged with battery, a misdemeanor, and two felonies: robbery and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. He was subsequently freed from custody after posting bonds totaling $10,500.

Accused of pleasuring himself while walking around a Target store, an Iowa man told cops that he was “not masturbating his actual penis,” but rather “a dildo he had in his shorts.”

Despite that convincing explanation, Deshawn Brown, 25, was busted for indecent exposure, according to a criminal complaint.

Seen at right, Brown, who lives a few blocks from the Target in downtown Iowa City, was caught on camera earlier this month “touching his clothed genitalia as well as his exposed penis.”

The defendant, investigators stated, “has prior incidents of the same behavior.” In July, Brown was sentenced to two years probation for indecent exposure and placed on Iowa’s sex offender registry. 

When questioned by police about his Target stroll, Brown reportedly claimed to actually have been engaged with a stashed sex toy. However, cops noted, video evidence “suggests the phallic object in his hand was indeed connected to his person.”

Charged with several misdemeanor indecent exposure counts, Brown was released from custody last night after posting $3000 bond. He is also facing a probation violation count related to his sentencing earlier this year.

A Florida Woman is facing a felony charge after allegedly shoving a bag of dog poop into the face of an elderly neighbor, cops report.

Kali Robertson, 28, was arrested Sunday morning after a confrontation at the mobile home park where she and the 76-year-old victim live in separate residences.

According to a complaint charging Robertson, seen at right, with battery on a victim 65 years or older, she became upset with Daniel Powell, who “would always speak with her while she walked her dog.”

Robertson, cops say, took an “unsecured bag of dog feces and pushed it” into Powell’s face, “leaving feces smeared on his face and the bag on the ground.”

The dog waste bag “matched those in the defendant’s possession and she ultimately admitted to the battery,” a Pinellas Park Police officer noted.

Robertson, who was released from jail Monday after posting $2500 bond, yesterday pleaded not guilty to the third degree felony.
