Weird BUT true

- Natalie O’Neill, Wires

Hail hath no fury . . . An angry Colombian Uber driver caught his wife having an affair when she and her lover unwittingl­y hired him to drive them to a Barranquil­la hotel.

The husband, identified by cops as Yeimy, brawled with the lover when he showed up in a friend’s car his wife hadn’t recognized.

A Florida mom, furious at two mean girls for allegedly bullying her daughter, also went a little spray-zy.

Simmone James, 46, tossed cayenne pepper at the 8- and 11-year-old girls, who ran into the Cambridge Elementary School office in Cocoa grabbing their burning eyes and screaming.

James, charged with child abuse and battery, said the principal had failed to protect her daughter. Joke’s on her. Pedgie Georges, 22, thought she was playing a funny prank on her boyfriend when she texted him saying, “people are robbing the restaurant” in Fort Pierce, Fla., where she was eating, according to cops.

But when her boyfriend called 911, cops responded and Georges was charged with misuse of 911.

An Oregon FBI agent was shot by a booby-trapped wheelchair in a home rigged with spring-loaded animal snares and other perils.

The agent got past driveway spike strips and a circular hot tub rigged to roll over intruders, police said.

Gregory Lee Rodvelt, 67, who was ordered to forfeit the property as part of an elder-abuse case, was charged with assault on a federal officer, cops said.

When it comes to funeral planning, she’s a wizard.

Veronica Leaning, 78, a J.K. Rowling superfan, staged her own epic Harry Potterthem­ed funeral service, complete with costumes and a Hogwarts coffin.

Leaning was laid to rest by dozens of friends — dressed as Professor Dumbledore, Pomona Sprout, and other characters from the books — in Grimsby, England.
