Holly Solomon, 28, chased her 36-year-old husband Daniel Solomon with the family Jeep SUV on Saturday night over a political argument stemming from the fact he didn't vote, CBS station KPHO in Phoenix, Ariz. reported. She pinned him between the underside of the SUV and the curb when he tried to run for help.

The husband told investigators that Solomon believed her family was going to face hardship from President Barack Obama's re-election.

Witnesses told police that Solomon followed her husband in her car through a parking lot while screaming at him. He hid behind a light pole to protect himself while Solomon circled several times. She struck him as he tried to make a break for the main road.

There were no signs Solomon was impaired either by alcohol or drugs, KPHO said.

She was booked on an aggravated assault and domestic violence.

Her husband remains in critical condition at Scottsdale Healthcare Osborn Medical Center, news outlet Arizona Republic reported.

It's not clear whether Solomon has a lawyer. She had no listed phone number.

Woman raped for 10 minutes on Metro bus, authorities say

November 8, 2012 | 7:13pm

 

An 18-year-old woman was raped for about 10 minutes on a Metro bus as it drove through Culver City, authorities said Thursday evening.
The attack took place in the rear of the near-empty bus Wednesday evening and went unnoticed by the driver, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
"During the rape, an unknown witness, the only passenger on the bus, attempted to get the driver's attention," the department said in a statement.
But the suspect left the 217 bus before the driver became aware of the assault, according to the department. The suspect got off at the last stop where the bus makes its turnaround at Sepulveda Boulevard near Slauson Avenue.
The victim was described by authorities as having the mental capacity of a 10-year-old. She reported the attack to the driver after the suspect was gone.
Detectives said the attacker is African American and between 18 and 20 years old. He is 5-feet 8 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall with short-cropped hair and was wearing jeans and a hooded sweatshirt with narrow horizontal stripes, authorities said.
Detectives were also seeking the witness. Anyone with information is asked to call authorities at (866) 247-5877. Anonymous tipsters call call (800) 222-8477.

FLORIDA ( Woman arrested for masturbating in STARBUCKS ) Yes you read it right !

A woman was just taken into custody after she was allegedly caught masturbating in a Florida Starbucks and, when cops came, they found a glass pipe with cocaine residue in her purse.
Um, have you heard of anything more disturbing? I can't imagine this woman doing something so stupid and gross, and in a public place, no less!
According to a police report obtained by TheSmokingGun.com and reported by the New York Daily News, 29-year-old Jennifer Piranian told police officers that she wasn't feeling well when they found her in the Manatee County Starbucks coffee house. The cops had a different story, though, according to Brandenton Police spokesman Josh Cramer:

We got called there by someone who said she was masturbating. She was high on crack with her hands going everywhere. No one could ever say for sure what she was doing, and I'm pretty sure the video didn't show anything definitive. But her hands went into her pants when she was wigging out.

Well, talk about one WEIRD story! It's one thing for this woman to be dumb enough to do cocaine, but a whole other level to carry it with her in her purse and then go to Starbucks–to masturbate! Seriously, what was she thinking? I'm pretty much looking at this one and saying EW.

ARIZONA Donation to California called ' Money Laundering' (Romney's campaign backers)

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — An $11 million campaign contribution from an Arizona nonprofit that gave money to a group fighting Gov. Jerry Brown's tax initiative represents the largest case of campaign "money laundering" in state history, California's political watchdog agency charged Monday.

Americans for Responsible Leadership reported the source of its contribution to a political action committee that is active in the November election after the state Supreme Court ruled unanimously Sunday that the group must turn over its records.

But the disclosure on the eve of Election Day reveals little about the actual source of the money. It shows that ARL received the $11 million from a group called Americans for Job Security through a second intermediary, the Center to Protect Patient Rights. Both are federally registered nonprofits that are not legally required to disclose the source of their funds.

Americans for Job Security has been active in the presidential race, pouring millions of dollars into swing states for independent expenditure ads supporting GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney and other Republican candidates, and the Center to Protect Patient Rights distributed more than $44 million to more than two dozen conservative advocacy groups during the 2010 midterm elections, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

INDIANAPOLIS ( Huge Explosion kills 2 people in neighborhood )

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A massive explosion sparked a huge fire and killed two people in an Indianapolis neighborhood where about three dozen homes were damaged or destroyed, authorities said Sunday. The powerful nighttime blast shattered windows, crumpled walls and could be felt at least three miles away.

Seven people were taken to a hospital with injuries after the explosion and fire, Deputy Fire Chief Kenny Bacon said.

Fire Lt. Bonnie Hensley said firefighters put out the flames and then went through the rubble and damaged homes one at a time in case people had been left behind. She said they used search lights until dawn as they peered into the damaged and ruined homes. Two bodies were recovered.

Some witnesses said in televised reports that they heard people screaming "help me! help me!" after the explosion and fire and that two parents and two children were safely pulled from one house that caught fire.

The fire department has not released the names of those killed. Hensley said one body was found in one of the leveled homes after the fire was put out.

The explosion at 11 p.m. Saturday destroyed two houses that were side by side and spread fire to two other nearby homes in the neighborhood on the south side of Indianapolis.
