QuoteSuspected Thief Wears Bra As Disguise

Posted: 5:34 am EDT October 19, 2009Updated: 11:14 am EDT October 19, 2009
DAYTON -- Dayton Police said one of the men accused in the armed robbery of a man in Dayton used a woman's bra to disguise his appearance.

An officer in the area of North Main Street and Santa Clara noticed something strange while patrolling the area late Sunday. A short time later, the officer heard a gunshot. He circled the block and found a male victim who said he was robbed at gunpoint of $10.

Police quickly tracked down the getaway car, and the four men inside ran off on foot. All of them were wearing black masks over their faces. It turns out that the driver's mask was actually a bra.

Just minutes later, police arrested Ryan Neal and Keanthony Strickland, both 19, and Gabriel Williams, 18 in connection with the robbery. They also recovered two loaded guns.

The fourth suspect remains on the loose.

QuoteMother of 14-year-old shot by officer says her son had dropped his gun
Police say robbery suspect refused order to disarm, then turned toward officer


The mother of a 14-year-old boy shot Wednesday night by city police as authorities say he attempted to rob a University of Maryland medical student at gunpoint said her son had dropped his gun before the officer discharged his weapon.

Police are not identifying the 14-year-old, but the mother said the boy's name is Charles Henry Kelly III and that he was following the officer's orders at the time he was shot. Shawn Stokes, the boy's mother, said she got an account of what happened from two other boys at the scene who are friends with her son.

A city Police Department spokesman confirmed that there were other boys present at the time of the shooting who have not been charged.

According to police, the teen was robbing the student, holding a gun to his neck, when he refused to follow an officer's order to drop the weapon and turned toward the officer.

Stokes said that she asked her hospitalized son whether he let go of his weapon before taking a bullet to his midsection, and the boy, who could not speak, nodded in agreement. The weapon turned out to be a BB pistol.

"My son was wrong for putting the gun up against that student, but he dropped the gun," Stokes said. "And I want to see [what] the school's cameras have. My son has got to be on the cameras."

Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said the department stands by its account of what happened. Police say a Western District officer, whose name was not released, was in uniform and driving a marked police car to police headquarters about 7:50 p.m. Wednesday when he saw an armed robbery in progress in the 700 block of W. Lexington St. near Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.

Police say when the officer, a member of the department for three years, neared the robbery scene, the UM student yelled out that the boy had a gun. The robbery target, a third-year medical student, later told police he was riding his bike when the youth told him to stop and placed a gun to his neck.

When the boy failed to heed the officer's verbal warning to drop the weapon and turned toward him, the officer fired two shots, hitting the youth at least once in the stomach, according to police, who interviewed the medical student about the shooting.

"Quite frankly, a third-year med student isn't going to lie," Guglielmi said. "The officer observed the gun and fired a defensive shot. Typically, it's been our experience that people don't lie about the fact that they have had a gun pointed to their head or neck."

Stokes said her son is an eighth-grader at Diggs-Johnson Middle School. She said he has possessed several BB guns in the past, but the one he had Wednesday night was borrowed from a friend. Stokes said her son had been arrested twice before, the last time for possessing marijuana.

Kelly remains in critical condition at Maryland Shock Trauma Center, and his mother said he is scheduled to undergo an additional surgery on his stomach Friday.

"He's being punished. ... He didn't take nothing from that student. He didn't shoot him, he didn't kill him," she said.

Guglielmi said the officer fired two shots.

"We're looking at this as an act of heroism," he said. "At that hour of the night, he didn't know if that was a real gun or not. He potentially saved that victim's life."

Two abdomen surgeries.  I hope the little fucker needs to shit in a bag for the rest of his life.

QuoteOfficer accused of pointing gun at 'House of Screams' character
Off-duty city officer charged with assault in incident involving killer from Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie



The haunted house in Essex is billed "The House of Screams," but it was the character of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre killer who ended up frightened when authorities say an off-duty Baltimore police officer pulled his gun and pointed it at the actor during a skit at the Eastpoint Mall.

Baltimore County police officers arrested Southeastern District Sgt. Eric Michael Janik, 36, and charged him early Monday with first- and second-degree assault and reckless endangerment. He was released on $25,000 bail and suspended by the Baltimore Police Department.

"I've never had anything like this happen to me," said Michael Brian Morrison, a 32-year-old contractor who helps run the privately owned haunted house and played the part of "Leatherface." The owners rent space from the Baltimore County mall on Eastern Avenue and attract 1,500 to 3,000 people a night.

Morrison is at the end of the haunted house tour and threatens people with a chainsaw that has its sharp chain removed. He chases people outside for "one last scream." He said Janik's group, which went through Sunday a little after 10 p.m. and included a female city police officer and the sergeant's 9-year-old daughter, were rowdy.

He said the sergeant held his screaming daughter close to scary characters and that when it came time to give chase, "I went after the adults" because the girl was crying.

A Baltimore County police report says Morrison approached Janik while he revved the gas-powered saw and when he got three to four feet from him, "Janik pointed a black handgun as his chest."

Morrison said he put his hands in the air and the police report says Janik stated, "It's o.k. I'm a cop." He said the officer's daughter was tugging the sleeve of the arm holding the gun and that after he put the weapon away, the sergeant approached him to shake his hand.

The report says the officer went back to his car, where a county officer first encountered him sitting in the front passenger seat. Janik rolled down the window and the officer noted in the report that "a strong odor of alcohol" could be detected. The report says that both Janik and the other officer in the car, Lisa Michelle Hinkley, showed their city police badges.

"When asked if he had at any time pulled his handgun out of its holster for any reason while attending the haunted house, Defendant Janik stated 'no,'" the police report says. Janik told the officer that his daughter "may have pulled on his shirt and accidentally showed it."

But police said they interviewed witnesses, including a tour guide and another worker, who said the sergeant pointed the gun at Morrison's chest. Police said they returned to Janik and wrote in a report that he "changed his version of events and stated that he did pull his weapon out and pointed it at the ground." He told the officer that Morrison "did not stop advancing toward him" and that while he knew it was part of the show, he pulled his gun "to stop him."

Police said in the report that the green Carlton chain saw "did not cause a threat of bodily harm." The report also says that Janik had slurred speech, but they did not administer a breath test.

Janik, reached by telephone at his home, declined to comment. His attorney with the city Fraternal Order of Police union, Shaun Owens, also declined comment.

Baltimore police chief spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said Janik could be suspended without pay at a formal hearing later this week.

"These allegations are incredibly concerning and we are committed to holding our officers accountable," Guglielmi said. "We won't tolerate any behavior that undermines the integrity of the agency and the hard work of our police officers."

Morrison said that the haunted house opens again Wednesday and that he'll be back in his familiar role. "I'll probably be a bit more leery," he said.

(CNN) -- A runaway teen who said her father threatened to kill her for converting from Islam to Christianity has been returned from Florida to Ohio, but not yet to her family, her mother's lawyer said Tuesday.

Rifqa Bary, 17, is in the custody of Franklin County Children Services while other issues in the case are settled, attorney Roger Weeden said.

"We're very happy that Rifqa is back where she should be, close to her parents," Weeden said. "The allegations of abuse and neglect were unfounded. Now some unification can begin."

A Florida judge ruled earlier this month in favor of her parents, Mohamed and Aysha Bary, who had requested that their daughter be transferred to Ohio.

The teen's attorney, John Stemberger, who leads a Christian advocacy organization, opposed the move.

The teen left her family in Columbus, Ohio, in July and took refuge in the home of a minister in Orlando, Florida. She was later moved into foster care after she said in an affidavit that her Muslim father had threatened her after finding out about her conversion. Her father has denied the allegation.

Judge Daniel Dawson, in his October 13 decision, said it was in Bary's best interest for her emergency custody case to continue in Ohio.

The transfer was delayed until the teen's immigration status was determined. Attorneys for the parents, who are from Sri Lanka, sent her immigration documents to the court within two weeks.

Her return to Ohio comes after months of legal wrangling, including the affidavit from the teenager claiming that her father was pressured by the family's mosque in Ohio to "deal with the situation," referring to her conversion.

In an earlier court filing, Rifqa Bary alleged that her father said, "If you have this Jesus in your heart, you are dead to me." The teenager claims her father added, "I will kill you."

Mohamed Bary, 47, has denied the accusations.

"We wouldn't do her harm," he said, saying he knew his daughter was involved with Christian organizations.

"I have no problem with her practicing any faith," Bary said, but acknowledged that he prefers that she practice Islam.

A report by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement says, "Our investigation has provided no clear evidence of criminal activity."

During a Florida court hearing, the teen periodically read a Bible, as did many of her supporters who filled the courtroom.

The supporters said they were disappointed by the ruling, but believe Jesus is with Bary no matter where she goes.

Bank Robber Eats Demand Note



      A bank robbery suspect has been caught on video eating his demand note. Streetsboro, Ohio police say that John Ford the piece of paper he chewed up was the note that Ford wrote demanding cash from a bank teller. Police handcuffed Ford and removed items from his pocket, including the piece of paper thought to be the demand note, placing them on the hood of a police car near the suspect's face.

      Police say they did not notice Ford eating the piece of paper while they were busy searching him for weapons. Patrolman Daniel Blada stated "We're searching him for weapons. We're not looking at his head." Police were curious about the location of the demand note after the suspect was taken into custody and investigators watching surveilance video from the bank noticed Ford giving what appeared to be a demand note to the bank teller.

      After investigators asked the arresting officers about the demand note, they reviewed the video from the police vehicle and saw Ford leaning over, eating something off of the car hood. "He grabbed it in his mouth, just like Pacman," said Blada. "He just ate it right there."

      Police say they discovered a .38 caliber pistol and a bundle of cash covered in red ink in Ford's black Ford Escort. Ford is supected of being involved in several area bank robberies.

QuoteStatewide survey shows "ball tapping" problem widespread
Posted: Nov 24, 2009 6:33 PM EST Updated: Nov 25, 2009 11:22 AM EST



Bob Segall/13 Investigates

It's a disturbing game with devastating consequences, and a new WTHR survey suggests it is rampant in Indiana schools.

"Ball tapping" is the act of intentionally hitting or kicking a male in the genitals. Earlier this month, an Eyewitness News investigation showed the game has become commonplace in some area schools, resulting in serious injuries for students.

As part of the investigation, WTHR also conducted a statewide survey of school nurses. The results are in, and they show the problem of ball tapping is more common and widespread than many school officials had realized.

"New perspective"

School nurses from 163 Indiana schools participated in the anonymous survey, and 33% of those nurses said they're aware of ball tapping happening at their school within the past twelve months.

But a closer look at the statistics shows the problem is much more serious in some schools than in others.

23% of school nurses who work at the elementary level say they've seen or heard of ball tapping at their school. That number nearly doubles in high schools, where 43% of school nurses say they've seen it.

And in middle schools, 62% of school nurses said they're aware of students engaged in ball tapping.

"I would have expected it to be a low number," said Mary Conway, president of the Indiana Association of School Nurses. "I would not have expected [school nurses] to have had much experience with it at all ... because I think it's something most kids won't talk about with a nurse. I'm very surprised by this whole issue and it's given me a new perspective."

Among the 72 middle school and high school nurses who participated in WTHR's survey, 50% said they had seen students who came to the school clinic seeking assistance related to an incident of ball tapping. Half of those nurses also reported they had observed the problem several (more than two) times each school year, and about 10% said it happens at their school on a daily or weekly basis.

Some nurses offered comments with their survey responses. A sample of those comments provides insight into what those nurses are dealing with:

    * "This is not a new situation. It has popped up periodically in our school system from year to year. Students seem to think it is "funny" or "harmless". We have gone to a great length to educate our students (esp. middle school aged students) that this is not acceptable conduct and that it can result in horrible injury. It seems to be a middle grade mentality type of thing. We have issues with both boys "tapping" other boys, and girls "tapping" boys because it gives an immediate reaction."
    * "I have had on occasion had a student come in complaining of pain in that area, and never a reasonable explanation of why he hurts in that area. I am better informed to possibly identify that this is taking place."
    * "I have seen it done both maliciously and just as guys goofing around. I heard from one student that he had to have one testicle surgically removed after being kicked in his genitals during summer school. Our school may treat this as an assault if a student or family complains that it is done in a malicious manner. It is probably more often overlooked as horseplay."
    * "I had a case early this school year of an injured boy, with that type injury, but it was claimed to be accidental & no adults witnessed it. Now, I wonder."
    * "We had a local male pediatrician talk to the boys about this last year and we have seen a dramatic decrease in incidence of this behavior since then. He talked specifically about the physical harm that occurs and it was very effective. I would recommend a similar discussion at other schools experiencing this problem."

"Just want to fall and cry"

Jake Arend doesn't need survey results to convince him ball tapping is a serious problem.

Classmates began hitting him in the groin when he was in sixth grade and it continued for years.

"I was just the scrawny kid everybody picked on to make themselves look better," Arend said. "If you get hit in that area, you just want to fall and cry, but I tried not to."

By the time Jake got to Danville High School, he says he was being ball tapped every week – sometimes even three or four times a day.

"Sometimes it would be just the flick of a wrist, and there was one time I actually got hit in the area with a socket wrench," he recalled. "When I got hit with that, I actually just hit the ground and just laid there in the fetal position for five to ten minutes for the pain to go away, then I got up and went to class."

Jake never told his parents and he never told his teachers, fearing the bullies at school would hit him ever harder if they got in trouble.

"I just thought 'It's pain. I'll deal with it,'" said Arend.

When Jake graduated in May 2009, he thought all that pain would be a thing of the past. It was just getting started.

Emergency surgery

In late October, Jake was rushed to Hendricks Regional Hospital in Danville where doctors performed an emergency operation. Years of enduring ball tapping had finally taken its toll. Undetected scar tissue had completely sealed off Jake's urinary tract, resulting in horrifying pain.

"It was a pain like I've never felt before. It was like taking a knife and just jamming it down in your stomach and dragging it all the way down through your genital area," he said. "The urologist said the signs can go undetected for years until it hits you like it hit me."

Doctors placed a catheter in Jake's urethra and told him he will need another operation to fix all the damage caused by repeated blows to the groin.

For Jake's father, that recent trip to the emergency room was the first time he had ever heard of ball tapping. "I never in a million years would have thought this was happening to him," said Eddie Arend. "Evidently it's happening at a lot of schools. It's not just his school."

School nurses confirm that's true.

"A real wakeup call"

"It's a more serious problem than what I had imagined," Conway said. "I had no idea the kids were that violent with it. Watching your video, I was appalled and the survey is somewhat surprising."

Conway says the Eyewitness News investigation and survey should be "a real wakeup call" to schools and school nurses across Indiana. She says the IASN board of directors will further research the issue because Conway believes more education and awareness is needed for teachers, administrators and school nurses to help protect students. 52% of school nurses who completed the 13 Investigates survey said they had never heard of ball tapping prior to learning of WTHR's investigation.

"I'm surprised nothing has really been said about it," admitted Conway. "I think any issue that impacts health in a permanent way needs to be addressed."

Jake's father says parents must address it, too.

"A lot of times as parents, do we forget to talk to our own children? I guess we do," he said. "There's nothing I wouldn't do to take away his pain. I just never knew it was happening and the sad truth is, [Jake] has to pay the rest of his life for this."

It's a costly and terribly painful lesson Jake wants other students to remember.

"If you're in school right now and you're dealing with it, don't be afraid to say something," Arend said. "Ask teachers, go to counselors, ask the nurses ... I wish I told somebody."
