    An Alabama man who denied feeding methamphetamine to a so-called "attack squirrel" he considered a pet has been arrested.

    The Limestone County Sheriff's Office said on Twitter that 35-year-old Mickey Paulk was caught Thursday night following a chase in which he rammed an investigator's vehicle. Authorities had been seeking Paulk on multiple felony warrants unrelated to the squirrel named "Deeznutz," made infamous after police said they were warned about a meth-fueled, trained attack squirrel.

    Paulk told The Associated Press last week that he was working on a plan for turning himself in to authorities. But authorities said he was booked into the Lauderdale County Jail after fleeing a motel on a stolen motorcycle.

    It's unclear whether he has a lawyer. Deeznutz couldn't be tested for meth and has been released.

    :laughing:

    I didn't even realize it had jumped on. I thought it fell from a crane or somewhere above. I was fixed on looking at the ferry and those aboard.

    Somewhere on that ferry is an exhausted angel making sure everyone else is out of the way, and one dead idiot who's "sorry."

    https://www.foxnews.com/world/see-i...shes-onto-quebec-ferry-pulling-away-from-dock

    A Canadian man who died after his RV careened down a hill, went airborne and crashed onto the back of a ferry Monday is being hailed as a hero for doing everything he could in his last moments to prevent a worse outcome.

    The incident happened at a ferry terminal in Tadoussac, a small village in northern Quebec.

    The victim, who police have identified as 40-year-old Eric Belac, lost control of his RV as it sped down a steep hill by the ferry terminal, CBC News reported. The vehicle sped over a raised loading ramp and slammed into the back of a departing ferry, the report said.

    Security footage shows ferry passengers scattering after the moment of impact.

    Belac and his passenger were taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead, CBC News reported. A 40-year-old woman was critically injured, the report said.

    Witnesses on land told Radio-Canada that Belac did everything he could to warn people around him as the RV sped down the hill, by avoiding cars and honking at pedestrians.

    "He was trying to stop by swerving into the metal gates on the side of the road," said one pedestrian who witnessed the crash.

    Authorities are blaming the accident on mechanical issues with the RV, the Canadian Press reported.

    This is the “chicken” on my Sam’s Club spicy chicken sandwich.

    It’s not very spicy, either.

    WTF?

    So let me get this right, he fucked up and then somewhat mitigated the damage done from his screw up and is therefore a hero.

    Chicken strip sandwich. Strip being singular.

    Appears it was a mechanical failure, not his fault.

    My dad has a massive RV and is serious about keeping up with its maintenance needs. He considers every mechanical failure his fault, just like I do for him spending MY inheritance on the stupid thing. Any RV older than 4 years with mechanical issues, they're the owner's fault. You gotta keep 'em up.

    Bigger money pits than boats and planes.
