A guy in a small fishing boat got drunk and purposely\u00a0rammed\u00a0a much bigger boat on the American side of Lake St. Clair over the weekend.\u00a0 The couple on the large boat, who do not want their identity revealed for fear of retribution, said they don\u2019t know the man on the boat who attacked them and they were on their way back to the dock when they noticed him following them.<\/p>\n
The retired couple on the bigger boat posted the video on Facebook, and it’s pretty crazy . . . he gets the whole front of his boat up onto the back of theirs.\u00a0 They say they don’t know him, or why he did it.\u00a0 The 39-year-old man was arraigned Monday on charges of operating while intoxicated and malicious destruction of property. Here’s the sheriff’s office with a warning.<\/strong><\/p>\n ______________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n An American ice cream company is working with police to hunt down a woman seen in a viral video opening a tub and taking a lick before returning it to the supermarket\u2019s freezer.<\/p>\n In the video, a young woman can be seen pulling off the lid of a tub of Blue Bell Ice Cream and taking a lick then putting it back as a man\u2019s voice eggs her on.<\/p>\n The nine-second clip has racked up more than 11 million views since it was shared on Twitter on Saturday.<\/p>\n Several Twitter users questioned why Blue Bell Creameries doesn\u2019t come with a protective seal on their products.<\/p>\n Blue Bell also addressed customers\u2019 concerns about the seal on their products.<\/p>\n \u201cDuring production, our half gallons are flipped upside down and sent to a hardening room where the ice cream freezes to the lid creating a natural seal.

He took some photos of the bear through the window of the room, and shared them on Facebook. He says the bear knocked over the washing machine, causing water to flow into the room, and even ripped up a portion of the ceiling.
