Delhi police parade 'space suit' scammers after NASA claims exposed
NEW DELHI - The alleged scam was out of this world but Indian police brought a father and son duo down to earth when they paraded them in the fake space suits used to convince a businessman to hand over more than $200,000. New Delhi police released pictures and video of the two accused wearing the silvery suits, after the men were apprehended over claims that they could sell "magical" copper plates to US space agency NASA. Already on bail accused of selling snakes with "medicinal qualities" for more than $25,000 each, the pair told potential victims they were developing a device which could be used to generate "electricity from thunderbolts". They promised it would be sold to NASA and India's space agency for hundreds of millions of dollars, police said....

Trump risks Scottish anger as resort bans iconic drink
LONDON - US President Donald Trump has risked the further ire of Scotland, his mother's homeland, after his luxury Turnberry golf resort banned the sale of national soft drink Irn-Bru. The resort's general manager Ralph Porciani told local newspaper the Ayrshire Post that he no longer sold the fluorescent orange fizzy drink as it stained the carpets. "We can't have it staining when to replace the ballroom carpet would be £500,000 pounds ($678,800) alone," he said. Irn-Bru's "secret recipe" was introduced by AG Barr in 1901, and it has dominated the Scottish market for over 100 years with the equivalent of 12 cans consumed every second. The 32 different ingredients are combined in a huge vat once a month, although the recipe recently changed in order to...

Marcela Temer
Brazil's first lady mocked after jumping in lake to rescue dog
BRASÍLIA - Brazil's first lady Marcela Temer leapt fully clothed into a lake at the presidential palace to rescue her pet dog - then got roasted on social media. The 34-year-old former beauty queen jumped into the lake after her Jack Russell named Picoly went after some ducks but struggled to get back out. Although the drama occurred on April 22, it only became public this week. Brazilian media and Twitter wits mocked the first lady's heroics, making the incident a top trending topic late Wednesday. Given that her husband Michel Temer is the most unpopular president on record in Brazilian history, leftist blogger Leonardo Stoppa joked that Marcela's aim was not to save the dog but the duck. "She despaired, because she saw one of Temer's few voters," he said in a...

A sticky mess: Liquid chocolate spills onto Polish highway
WARSAW, Poland - A tractor-trailer has overturned on a Polish highway, spilling tons of liquid chocolate that are solidifying into a huge sticky mess. The private broadcaster TVN24 showed images of an overturned truck surrounded by brown chocolate covering six lanes on the A2 motorway, blocking traffic in both directions. Rescue officials said the liquid chocolate was solidifying as it cooled and would require large amounts of hot water to clear away. Senior brigadier Bogdan Kowalski with the fire brigade of Slupca, a town in western Poland, said, "the cooling chocolate is worse than snow." TVN24 reported from the site of the accident that the driver was taken to a hospital with a broken arm. The accident occurred in the morning when there was little traffic and nobody else was...

Fingerprint left in Play-Doh leads to shoplifting suspect
LEICESTER, Mass. - A Massachusetts police department says a fingerprint left in a hunk of Play-Doh led them to a shoplifting suspect. Leicester police responded to Walmart on April 11 after an employee found several electronic anti-theft devices that had been covered in the malleable clay-like toy in an apparent attempt to neutralize them. The attempt to disable the spider-wrap devices failed, and the suspect had fled. He did, however, leave a fingerprint impression in the Play-Doh. Police announced Wednesday the Connecticut Forensics Laboratory helped find a match for the print. Police charged 55-year-old Dennis Jackson with unlawful removal of an anti-theft device. Police say he has a long criminal record and faces arrest warrants in at least two other states. - AP
