Weird BUT true

-

Florida cops made a drug bust when the evidence landed nearly in their lap.

A crazed man in Stuart was arrested after he started throwing handfuls of crack cocaine out of his car window while driving down a residentia­l street.

This kid is 5 years old and he’s already learned about the hard reality of politics.

Kindergart­ener Bobby Tufts lost his reelection bid for the job of mayor of Dorset, Minn., population 25.

Bobby was elected to the office in 2012 at age 3, when the citizens of the town used their usual method to choose their leader — picking a name out of a hat.

The new mayor is 16.

Even burglars have trouble finding child care.

A Massachuse­tts crook left his 2yearold child with his girlfriend in a parked car while he broke into a home, police say.

A mailman spotted Timothy Schoener, 26, during the alleged caper in the town of Spencer and called police, leading to the arrest.

And you thought Manhattan real estate was pricy.

A 388squaref­oot house in Tampa, Fla., is on the market for $199,999.

The “doll house” home is in a historic district of tiny 100yearold houses.

Also known as a “shotgun shack,” the small but wellappoin­ted home is good for “singles and short people,” the seller says.

Japan is getting closer to making Voltron a reality.

The country has announced it is getting ready to create a new “space force,” in which it will work closely with the United States on what’s called the “fourth battlefiel­d.”

There will be no giant interstell­ar robots deployed — yet. For now, Japan is focusing on preventing satellites from crashing into the floating space debris that orbits the Earth.
