A teenage girl has been arrested after she made a YouTube video bragging that she had robbed a bank.
Hannah Sabata, 19, holds up handfuls of banknotes in the video which she entitled ‘Chick Bank Robber’.
She is also seen holding up handwritten signs in which she says she’s having the “best day of her life”.
Sabata, of Stromsburg, Nebraska, in the US, tells viewers she has stolen a Pontiac Grand Am and stolen more than $6,000 when she robbed a bank.
She says she plans to pay off student loans and “go on a shopping spree”.
Sabata is now accused of robbing a bank in Waco, Nebraska, after stealing a car in nearby York, reports the York News-Times.
York County Sheriff Dale Radcliff said a copy of the YouTube video will be turned over as evidence in the case.
Judge orders man to stop breeding
A US judge has ordered a man with nine children to stop procreating until he can afford to pay for them.
Corey Curtis, 44, of Racine, Wisconsin, was told to stop breeding as a condition of probation until he can financially support his nine children from six different women, The Smoking Gun reported.
Racine County Judge Tim Boyle sentenced Curtis to the rare punishment as a condition of a three-year probation order for failing to pay $50,000 in child support, plus another $40,000 in interest.
“Common sense dictates you shouldn’t have kids you can’t afford,” Judge Boyle said. “I will make that a condition of the probation.”
Curtis told CBS 58 that he planned to comply with the condition.
“Judges, they make rulings,” he said, “they make them kind of hastily. So, if that’s what he feels one of my conditions should be then I’m going to abide by it.”
Court records showed that Curtis has been arrested and charged with failure to pay child support on numerous occasions over the past 11 years.
Model jailed for wearing police uniform
A Chinese model who posed for sexy photos in a WPC’s uniform on a photo-shoot has been jailed for nine months for impersonating a police officer.
The revealing pictures of Wang Xiaomen, 23, showed her getting dressed in an official-looking police woman’s uniform.
As she sits on a bed wearing just a tight police shirt and a pair of panties, she is seen rolling on a pair of sheer black stockings.
In another snap she leans forward in her unbuttoned shirt to show off her lacy black bra.
But the pictures – taken to promote a new detective novel – created a furious row when Xiaomen tweeted three of the snaps on Sina Weibo, China’s version of Twitter.
Playing along with the role, Xiaomen wrote: “As a new cop in my home town, I need to learn the basics.
“As one of the flowers of the force, I am under pressure. I have to eat and drink with government leaders every day. I am using my flower status to dine with the leaders and win contracts for projects and investments!” she added.
But the pictures were re-tweeted more than 500 times and local officials ordered real police officers to arrest her after some Weibo users complained.
Judges in Fengtai, Beijing, found her guilty of falsely impersonating a policewoman and sentenced her to nine months in prison, suspended for a year.
Xiaomen had told the court she’d been paid £300 for the modelling session and added: “The costume was just a prop, I was so ignorant.”
Woman breastfeeds husband’s monkeys
A monkey trainer’s wife has revealed her secret contribution to her husband’s business – she breastfeeds his simian students.
Wife Jiao Xinzhen made a clean breast of the bizarre method during interviews to promote husband Huang Aiqing’s monkey school in Nanyang, Henan province, China.
Huang, 34, has become the region’s top monkey trainer supplying young apes for work in movies, circuses, theatres and street performers. And his wife Jiao, 27, explained: “Many times, some of the baby monkeys slip onto our bed at night to suckle.
“I feel they are just like my children.”
The couple even adopted one monkey as a playmate for their human son Ti. “In this house the monkeys are king,” said Huang.
“When I see him playing with my son I can see how close we are to them and they are to us and I’m pleased my boy has such a good playmate.”
