"Three teenage boys have been arrested after inadvertently entering President Donald Trump's Florida resort with a loaded AK47 assault rifle."

Easily done.

Easily done. ......
Was it the "entering" that was inadvertent, or had one of them carelessly forgotten that he was carrying an AK47?

I've been in Tampa this week on business and will be very glad to leave tomorrow, even though I am going back to sleepy central PA the long way round by flying to Albuquerque and driving from there!

'Very glad to leave'? Don't you like our sweltering summer days with cracking thunderstorms, daily shoot 'em ups and general tomfoolery? Heck, today we even treated you to two people jumping off a busy road bridge into the bay in an effort to avoid the police, they might find the missing one sometime...

The weather doesn't bother me too much, though I did drive through some serious rain this afternoon. To be quite honest I'm not really a big city person, and it isn't much fun here when I go out and see so many unmasked faces, the other sort of local idiocy has not affected me, thank goodness. So far regarding Covid-19 we have been very fortunate in State College, but that will probably all change over the next few weeks as the students return to Penn State and party on as usual

I couldn't get your link to work, have this one:

Cops: Woman Beat Father Over His Flatulence | The Smoking Gun

One doesn't know where to start with that one: Sharing a bedroom with her father, possibly the biggest wtf in the story????
Not being done for punching her sister two years ago.
And of course, losing her rag over a bit of wind.

I’ve noticed that in the US, petty, as in petty larceny, is sometimes spelled petty, and sometimes petit. I assume in some States it’s one, other States the other?
