Cops Chase Down Drug-Dealing Suspect While on Horseback

Is that why they’ve got horses?

I’ve long questioned the utility of horse cops. While police officers will say that they need them for crowd control, it often feels like the police only have them because they’ve already bought all of the tanks they wanted and “horse” was their last remaining idea. “The whole department has A.K.s now — why not give them ponies, too?”

We’ve already seen horse cops in action when someone *isn’t* allegedly committing a crime. Now, we know how these saddled-up officers respond when someone *is* allegedly committing a crime — in this case, dealing drugs.

Giddy up! Body cam video shows a mounted police officer in Florida encouraging her horse to "get that bad man" while chasing a running suspect.

Cell Phone Explodes in Woman’s Pocket

Taking “lighting up my phone” to a whole new level.

Taking “lighting up my phone” to a whole new level.

Nowadays, it seems like everything is a throwback. We’ve got a repeat president, every movie is a sequel, and in general, it just feels like people are yearning for the past rather than looking forward to the future.

One part of that past includes exploding cell phones. What’s old is new again!

In Anápolis, Brazil, a woman’s cell phone exploded in her pocket, setting her pants ablaze. While she suffered relatively harsh burns, she’s currently recovering and is doing just fine.

Before you ask, the phone wasn’t a Samsung Galaxy Note 7, but a Moto E32, which the woman claims she was still paying off. On the bright side, no more payment to deal with (except the hospital bill, of course).
