Weird BUT true

His crime fighting plan is a “hare” unconventi­onal.

A Pennsylvan­ia mayoral candidate wants to enlist drug-sniffing bunnies to help cops catch dealers.

Dave Gautreau, who is running for mayor in Lancaster, says law enforcemen­t should hop on board with the technique because rabbits are cheaper than dogs.

A Halloween company was forced to yank one poorly thought-out design from its Web site — an Anne Frank kids’ costume.

“We can all learn from the struggles of history!” HalloweenC­ostumes.com declared next to an image of the get-up, which included a blue dress, a shoulder bag and a green beret.

The firm apologized and removed the costume after viewers complained it made light of the Holocaust.

Squirrels are nuts about organizati­on.

They are borderline-obsessive compulsive about sorting their acorns into perfect piles arranged by size and type, according to UC Berkeley researcher­s.

Scientists studied the behavior of fox squirrels, which gather up to 10,000 nuts a year, and found they store the snacks in “subfolders” to prevent other creatures from swiping them.

That’s not how you score with ladies.

A creep with an “I am a pornstar” tattoo on his forehead is accused of violently groping a woman.

It took two years for cops to nab Christophe­r Wilson, 37, of Cincinnati, Ohio, after he allegedly kicked a woman and grabbed her private parts, police said. Floridians really are spacey. A congressio­nal candidate from Miami says she was kidnapped by aliens and taken aboard a spaceship as a child.

Bettina Rodriguez Aguilera, a 59-year-old Republican, said three extraterre­strials took her on a cosmic joyride when she was seven years old. She also says she still communicat­es with them telepathic­ally now and then.
