It seems like a man from Holmes County is a real-life wannabe Spider-Man super villain! Lookout Electro, Colton Madden is here to give you a shocking run for your money!
According to a
Facebook post from the Holmes County Sheriff's Office, Colton, with a twinkle in his eye, decided he wanted a piece of that electrifying super villain action. But instead of getting bitten by a radioactive eel or falling into a vat of lightning, he thought, "Hey, why not take down some transformers and cause a few power outages?" A true DIY approach to becoming a villain.
And so, armed with his questionable knowledge of electricity, he embarked for his mission across eastern Holmes County on a transformer-tampering rampage. He went to multiple locations where he wreaked havoc on four unsuspecting West Florida Electric Cooperative transformers. This up and coming evil doer caused numerous WFEC customers to be left in the dark!
Now, I have to admit, aspiring supervillains like Colton just can't resist leaving a signature mark. His calling card? Over $20,000 worth of damages! It's like he wanted to make sure people knew that this was no amateur hour. This was Electro-level mischief right here.
But let's give credit where credit is due. The authorities were on the case like Spider-Man on a mugger! With the help of a witness, they unraveled the shocking truth behind the power outages. It was Colton Madden, the Holmes County Electro.
Now, I know Electro might have some cool powers, but remember, with great power comes great responsibility. But in Colton's case, it's more like great charges! He's now hanging out in the Holmes County Jail, probably plotting his next evil electric move.
If you ever find yourself bitten by the supervillain bug, remember to stick to playing with toys and action figures. Just leave the transformers alone.
Over the weekend the Lee County Sheriff's Office responded to a burglary in progress at a home on 4th Way in North Fort Myers. When the cops entered the house they could hear the Florida Man criminal walking in the attic. Also, they found a 5 gallon bucket on the floor under the attic access and insulation on the floor. This Florida man needs to work on his ninja stealth abilities. But he was resourceful in other ways.
The deputies yelled for him to come down out of the attic, but Florida Man did not respond. The cops put a non lethal gas canister into the attic to smoke him out. He buried himself in the insulation with his face against the air duct system to breathe fresh air. No go on the smoke.
So they had to go up there and get him. Keep in mind how hot it gets in a Florida attic. That's when Florida Man Bruce Davis surrendered. Dude's covered in itchy insulation and the cops are like "we should take his picture first". I get it, this pic could make some solid memes.
What was he doing in the house? According to LCSO "A search of the home also revealed a broken window, appliances in use, and tools scattered throughout the residence. " Appliances in use? Was he making a smoothie? Doing laundry? This Florida Man criminal was charged with burglary and resisting an officer.
