Two cops in London kicked down the door to  save a woman slouched over, with her face in a bowl of soup. They saw her through the window and rushed to her aid.  But when they got inside, no one was actually in trouble - it was "ART".  The place is a modern art gallery, and the woman slouched over was just a very realistic mannequin. It's a modern art sculpture recently installed to add some character and make customers laugh.  It's called "Kristina", and it was commissioned by Banksy's old agent.

An employee at the gallery was upstairs making tea when cops busted in, and had no idea why they were there.  It turned out a random person who saw the mannequin through the window had called the police.

A not so smart guy near Denver got into a high-speed chase - while driving a tiny Smart car painted to look like a LITTLE TIKES car.  The red one with a yellow roof that every kid had, or wanted. He stole it from a business called Wrap Factory that does full-car wraps in different designs. So it's a promotional thing they use for advertising. He stole it last Friday, and got into a police chase a day later.  So the car wasn't too hard for them to spot, apparently.

Someone heard the sirens, and of course got a funny video of him speeding down a bike path, with the cops right on his tail. They eventually arrested him and recovered the tiny car.

Madeline Smith, of LA is as a professional 'Honey Trapper'. Probably not what you think - she charges $30 to catch cheating partners. She started her company in 2018 and says, ''There are so many types of guys and I know exactly how to play each one - smart guys, dumb guys, suspicious guys. It’s intuitive. She says "I can look at a profile and immediately know [a guy's] personality. It's kind of crazy how it evolved. I was obsessed with the TV show Cheaters and eventually it turned into a thing where other women would ask me to investigate their men. In 2018, I properly formed the loyalty test. With all the experience I've had over the years, I decided to come up with a game plan and system.''

Last month, The Mike and Carla Morning  mentioned that scientists designed a urinal that dramatically reduces splashing. Well, a London neighborhood has been struggling with people relieving themselves on city streets, and they're fighting back, big-time! They are painting walls and other surfaces with a special kind of paint, which actually causes a stream to SPLASH BACK on the person when they pee on it.  The idea is to deter public urination, by SOAKING the person. As we all know though - guys will be guys!

That's why we call it the Other News!
