\u27a2 <\/span>A man got his car immersed in a huge\u00a0<\/span>sinkhole<\/span><\/a>\u00a0in Maryland this week, after plowing through barriers and plunging in.\u00a0 He was released from the hospital with minor injuries.\u00a0 Here is a WSSC Water employee and a local business owner talking about the incident.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u27a2<\/span> Ontario Provincial Police issued a warning after stopping a driver north of Toronto whose car was piled so high with empty beer cans that he (or she!) was literally unable to use the rear-view mirror. The vehicle was stopped in cottage country during a RIDE check, where officers specifically look for signs that someone was drinking before hitting the road. The signs were certainly there, filling the back of the Toyota from the floor nearly all the way up to the roof, but the driver wasn\u2019t found to be impaired. They were charged for having an \u201cinsecure load\u201d and for driving with a licence under suspension.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u27a2<\/span> Emergency responders in Florida said they were summoned to an unusual scene where an airborne turtle crashed through a driver’s windshield — and survived.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The fire district said the turtle had apparently been struck by a semi truck on the highway and sent flying into the other vehicle’s windshield. “Both driver and turtle were unharmed,” the fire district said. “The turtle was released safely.”<\/span><\/p>\n

\u27a2 <\/span>A guy noticed his son had snuck out of the house, so he set a trap.\u00a0 When he returned, he triggered a Ring camera, which turned on some lights and played a message on a smart speaker.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u27a2 <\/span>After last week’s game between the Yankees and the White Sox in Iowa, everybody’s talking about\u00a0<\/span>“Field of Dreams”<\/i><\/b>.\u00a0 So it makes sense that this news would drop now . . .<\/span><\/p>\n

A TV series based on the movie has been given the green light at NBC’s Peacock streaming service.\u00a0 Not much is known about it yet, except that it’s being developed by Mike Schur, the guy who created\u00a0<\/span>“The Good Place”<\/i><\/b>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

His other credits include\u00a0<\/span>“Parks and Rec”<\/i><\/b>,\u00a0<\/span>“The Office”<\/i><\/b>,\u00a0<\/span>“SNL”<\/i><\/b>, and\u00a0<\/span>“Brooklyn Nine-Nine”<\/i><\/b>.\u00a0 But\u00a0<\/span>“Field of Dreams”<\/span><\/i>\u00a0will be a drama, NOT a comedy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
