Granny's Got a Gun
In Springhill Township, Pennsylvania, 85-year-old Leda Smith is a true crime-busting hero. After she heard someone break into her home she walked right past the burglar into her bedroom where she grabbed the .22-caliber revolver she had by her bed. She then held the 17-year-old intruder at gunpoint and forced him to call 911. She held the gun on the boy until police arrived. He will be charged with attempted burglary and related offenses in juvenile court. He was not identified because of his age. Recalling the experience Leda said, "It was exciting! I just hope I broke up the burglary ring because they have been hitting a lot of places around here." (myway.com)

Mickey Mouse, Cinderella, Snow White and Peter Pan arrested at Disneyland? Is this some kind of sick plot by a wicked witch or an evil stepmother? It turns out these familiar, usually happy, characters were marching into the California theme park to protest new work contracts. It was a far cry from the kind of Disney parades tourists know and love. Disney hotel employees, decked out in character costumes, picketed against the contracts which make health care unaffordable and creates an unfair wage system. Many of the protesters were arrested for failing to obey police officers. Guess it's not the Happiest Place on Earth anymore...
