Stupid Crimes: He was stowing away again in Margaritaville

Published June 25, 2009 4:00am ET



A 21-year-old man was found inside the luggage compartment of a commercial bus after blacking out at a Jimmy Buffet concert, Pennsylvania police said.

The driver pulled to the side of the highway around 2 a.m. Sunday, after someone heard noises from the bottom of the bus. The bus driver opened the luggage compartment to find, among the suitcases and duffle bags, an intoxicated Brent Murry. Friends of the passed-out Parrothead had stuffed him in the compartment after the concert. That was 90 miles back in Camden, N.J. Murry wasn’t hurt, and police didn’t charge him with a crime.

That’ll teach ’em

A suburban Philadelphia man who was fed up with children playing in his cul-de-sac was arrested after he came up with a unique way to say, “Get off my lawn!”

He blared a pornographic DVD at top volume from the windows of his upscale home.

The sounds of men and women in the heat of passion could be heard from a block and a half away, police said.

Michael Buck, 27, faces a felony obscenity charge.

Police said Buck had filed a previous complaint about the neighborhood children but there was nothing criminal about playing outside.
