iPad Stuck In Bumper: Georgia Woman’s Car Hit By Flying Apple Product

By The Huffington Post News Editors

Does car insurance usually cover flying iPads? One Georgia woman is probably asking herself that question after finding an iPad stuck in the bumper of her car.

According to local news outlet WSBTV, Alexa Crisa was driving home Friday in Roswell, Ga., when another driver, who unwittingly had left his iPad on the roof of his car, turned onto a street from a subdivision and accelerated, causing the iPad to take flight.

Crisa said she saw something flying toward her car, but never heard the impact, ABC 57 News reports. It wasn’t until later in the evening, after her father, Nick, came from work, that Crisa realized there was an Apple product lodged in her front bumper.

Anna Lamb-Creasey Learns Of Son’s Death Through Bizarre Facebook Message Sent By Police

By The Huffington Post News Editors

Anna Lamb-Creasey of Clayton County, Ga., learned of her son’s death almost a month after it happened. But she didn’t see it on the news or hear it from a neighbor. She found out from a Facebook message sent by a police-controlled masquerade account, reports Atlanta-based news outlet WSBTV.

Lamb-Creasey’s son, Rickie Lamb, was killed by a vehicle in Forest Park in the last week in January. It wasn’t until Valentine’s Day that she found out he had died, according to a post she wrote on the fundraising website set up for her son’s funeral.

Clarence Cox, a spokesperson for the Clayton County Police, told The Huffington Post over the phone Tuesday that police sent the Facebook message to the distraught mother from an account bearing the name “Misty Hancock” and a profile photo of rapper TI. The account had been used previously “in an undercover capacity,” Cox said. “We had no intention of it getting out all over the media like this.”

LOGANVILLE, Ga. — A woman hiding in her attic with children shot an intruder multiple times before fleeing to safety Friday.

The incident happened at a home on Henderson Ridge Lane in Loganville around 1 p.m. The woman was working in an upstairs office when she spotted a strange man outside a window, according to Walton County Sheriff Joe Chapman. He said she took her 9-year-old twins to a crawlspace before the man broke in using a crowbar.

But the man eventually found the family.

“The perpetrator opens that door. Of course, at that time he’s staring at her, her two children and a .38 revolver,” Chapman told Channel 2’s Kerry Kavanaugh.

The woman then shot him five times, but he survived, Chapman said. He said the woman ran out of bullets but threatened to shoot the intruder if he moved.
