Sometimes the local news delivers stories that are more entertaining than any Hollywood script. From personal feuds played out on public marquees to unlikely superheroes in their pajamas, here are three notable local news moments that will definitely make you do a double take.
1. 'On mom's grave': Gun Shop Owner Exposes Personal Rift
In Norfolk, Virginia, one gun shop owner used his business marquee to send a very public message. Instead of advertising sales, Ron Hess displayed a debt reminder after a former friend failed to pay him back. It’s a notable example of public shaming reaching a whole new level!
Notable Moment: Watch as the shop owner explains how the debt rose from $1,140 to $1,155 just because he didn't have a "0" for the sign [00:01:21]!
2. Florida Man in Batman PJs Stops Burglar
Florida is known for its unusual news, but this story of a local "superhero" is truly notable. Cal Maivitt, a Cape Coral contractor, didn't wait to change when he saw a burglar in his neighbor's garage. He sprang into action while still wearing his Batman pajamas!
Notable Moment: See the photo of Maivitt proudly posing with the police in his full Batman attire [00:00:12]!
3. Alligator Tossed into Wendy's Drive-Thru
This notable (and bizarre) prank in Royal Palm Beach involved a 24-year-old man who decided to hurl a 3.5-foot alligator through a Wendy’s drive-thru window. While his family claims it was just a joke, local authorities were not amused by the "deadly weapon."
Notable Moment: Hear the parents describe their son as an "Outdoorsman" who just thought the prank was funny [00:00:26].
