Cop story of the day

October 30, 2007

2:30 a.m. Interstate 30, near the Hunt County line, Texas. A Royse City policeman pulls over a truck for speeding. Driver is acting suspiciously. Police searches vehicle. Driver is transporting human heads. He is detained for eight hours while a judge tries to find something wrong with carrying human heads around.

Judge called to the scene: Apparently upset that heads were packed unceremoniously. “It was completely and wholly inappropriate in my view.”

Police lieutenant’s rule of thumb: “When you are carrying human body parts, it’s good to have some documentation that they are legitimate.”
