Speaker 1 (00:00):
Time for that's incredible.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Incredible, incredible stories from around the world and beyond. People
in Utah are in shock by a report about a
seven year old boy who somehow took his younger sister
out for a joy ride, driving his mother's car ten
miles through several towns.

Speaker 1 (00:17):
Incredibly, a seven year old. No one was hurt. Wow, Listen, I.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Was pretty shocked and scared, because, I mean, I have
a kid, so I know how scary it is to
come home and find your kid.

Speaker 4 (00:26):
And your car gone. This is a really high trafficked area.
For a little kid to be driving right here, that's
honestly crazy to me. I can't believe.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
That's incredible.

Speaker 5 (00:35):
Honestly, my cousin's son, I could see him being able
to do this. He's three right now, so not not
just yet, but I think by the time he's seven,
helped drive because he's around trucks and machinery and you know,
driving his cars all the time.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
I was gonna say when I hear stories like this,
because I remember this when I was little, my grandpa
would put me on his lap, like my.

Speaker 4 (00:59):
Mom would let me to steer like.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
I think they had theost thing ever to steal.

Speaker 3 (01:03):
Yeah, and I think they have some experience, even at seven,
with their parents.

Speaker 4 (01:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
A sixty three year old naked man in Florida was
caught trying to break into a woman's home. Police call
him the Birthday suit Bandit. Here's Matthew Hunter dealing with
police in the nude.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
What's going on, Brown? I don't to talk to you.
You're walking around the street.

Speaker 4 (01:24):
I know, God, I wanted more of that.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
I know, I know. But why.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
A Jumanji book was mailed back to a school library
in New Jersey along with forty dollars. It was supposed
to be returned within five days. Someone kept it for
fifteen thousand, seven hundred days, which is forty three years.
Here's the librarian, Jill Brave, and her students talking about
the return of the.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
Book, opening the book. You know who's sending this and
what could this be?

Speaker 1 (01:53):
Forty three years ago?

Speaker 6 (01:54):
Yeah, it's a very very long time for an over
new book.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
Made me feel good that someone took the time to
do this, the suspense to.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Know, like who checked it out.

Speaker 6 (02:05):
I'm like, whenever i'm board, I always have something to
think about. Now that they're older, they probably felt even
more guilty because it's been forty three whole years thought
about it.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
My kids are fascinated.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
I know I have a conscience about things.

Speaker 3 (02:22):
But if I found that I had a book for
forty three years that went to the library, I would
just assume the library doesn't care.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
I wouldn't even do it.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
I think they replaced the copy of Jumanji right now.
How about this? Police in Connecticut say flatulence spray somehow
ignited a panic and stampede at a carnival. Thankfully no
one was hurt. That's incredible.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
Oh, I just learned there's a thing called flatulent spray.

Speaker 1 (02:47):
Who knew? Who knew?

Speaker 2 (02:49):
And finally, today, the US Navy lost a sixty million
dollars fighter jet after it rolled overboard off a moving
aircraft carrier. Apparently the ship made a hard turn to
avoid some fire from fighters and Yemen. So it was,
you know, under attacker, and uh it just slipped off

(03:10):
and sank. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
I don't really get how that happened.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
But it's it's not lost. I mean, it's it's not
going to float away. It's pretty heavy, isn't it just
straight down? Can we just go back down?

Speaker 1 (03:20):
And how deep it use?

Speaker 6 (03:21):
Haul?

Speaker 2 (03:21):
It up.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
I don't think we can.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Then we can haul it up the Titanic.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
Well, uh, that Jumanji book got set

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Back to that back at some point
