Not the Brightest Bulb

Sheriff's deputies arrested a 46-year-old local woman and her boyfriend after running a vehicle registration check on his car.

It seems the automobile is a work of art, so beautiful the deputies thought it was abandoned. They decided to run the plates. The registered owner had a suspended license and three outstanding misdemeanor warrants.

A short while later a woman came got into the car and drove off, only to be stopped by a sheriff's deputy. She had no license and no proof of insurance. In addition, her license was suspended and she had four misdemeanor warrants outstanding.

Not wanting to have the car impounded, she asked if she could call her boyfriend, the registered owner, to pick up the car. The deputy granted her request. When her friend arrived he was arrested, too. The car was impounded.

Truth is often funnier than fiction.
