The Weirdest Florida Stories We Found In September 2023

We're officially in fall, which means leaves transform into beautiful, warm hues while temperatures dip down into cool temperatures. Some things don't change when it comes to Florida, and we're not just talking about the weather.

September saw many Florida women behind bars, including mothers. One parent was accused of ditching her son to go swimming with sharks. In another instance, two drunk women were reportedly filmed tossing a baby back and forth "like a toy."

That doesn't mean the men weren't busy either. In fact, they got into some pretty outrageous antics, from slamming a hot-wired excavator into a supermarket to an adventurer trying to head to England in a massive, hamster-wheel boat.
