    Charter boat captain arrested in Florida, accused of getting drunk, firing handgun and refusing to return passengers to shore......

    SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB/Gray News) - A charter boat captain was arrested on Sunday, accused of getting intoxicated on his boat, firing a handgun and refusing to return his passengers to shore.

    Shortly after midnight on June 2, Sarasota Police and the U.S. Coast Guard responded to 2 Marina Plaza in Sarasota after receiving calls from passengers aboard a charter ship saying the captain, 36-year-old Mark Bailey, was intoxicated, had fired off rounds from a handgun and was refusing to bring them to shore.

    When Bailey docked his boat, he was detained as police spoke with witnesses.

    Bailey's first mate told officers that he had seen the captain drink an unknown number of beers. Three witnesses gave a similar statement, while one added Bailey had also been drinking rum, according to police. Two passengers also attested they witnessed Bailey snorting cocaine.

    Officers say they led Bailey to a nearby cruiser and say he was unsteady on his feet, was slurring his speech, had watery, bloodshot eyes and smelled of alcohol. Police say he refused to submit to field sobriety exercises or a breathalyzer.

    Officers say Bailey became agitated when told he was under arrest and demanded to speak to a supervisor before kicking the rear door of a cruiser. Bailey was charged with boating under the influence and resisting arrest without violence.

    The U.S. Coast Guard is investigating Bailey for crimes that took place in their jurisdiction out on the water, including the allegations around the use of a handgun and refusing to return passengers to the shore.

    I wont say who it is but it’s alarming as they are not long in the Offroad community and don’t have a resume of legitimate experience or training. This cash grab mentality breeds abuses and risk of more closures or worse, peoples lives. If someone becomes severely injured or deceased while on one of these “organized” trips who’s liable for a total newbs mistakes? Your IG likes aren’t going to cover the legal fees associated with that kind of suit.

    LOL wow. Does that $3600 include fuel and meals? I assume you have to provide your own lodgings/camping arrangements and all your own equipment, so basically they want someone to pay $3600 to tag along on a road trip with them and learn a few cast iron cooking recipes and some recovery techniques. What has this come to

    So true. The funniest part is that the majority of hobbies/sports have groups or clubs that are only out there for the $$ and bring down the true meaning of said hobbie/sport. It is AWESOME however, that they all have social media accounts to mock them and try to keep them in check( OBFAKE, Kookof the day, ect....) :rofl::rofl:

    Do you accept Western Union &/or Green Dot gift cards as payment? I don't like the security of PayPal or traditionally safe companies. :spending:

    3 Deer Break Into an Elderly Woman's Apartment and Then Make Themselves at Home

    [​IMG]© Decatur Police Department/Facebook

    An elderly woman was left scared for her life after three deer jumped through her window and wreaked havoc on her apartment.

    On Tuesday, the Decatur Police Department in Indiana received an alarming call about a 74-year-old woman being trapped inside her home at Adams Woodcrest Retirement Village after three deer had broken in, the Decatur Police Department shared on Facebook.

    When officers arrived on the scene, they found the woman sitting on her sofa while one of the deer pranced wildly around her and the living room, police said.

    The officers quickly sprung into action with Deputy Kukelhan lying “across the elderly occupant, shielding her from certain injury until Corporal Patrick Piper and Officer Reid Arnold were able to assist the resident out of the apartment,” police said in the statement.

    After the woman was safely taken out of the building, officers removed the deer one by one.
