Man Brought to Justice after High Speed Chase (Ha! in a Golf Cart)

Monday, October 20th, 2008

DATELINE! Salt Lake! When evading the authorities, meets leisure sport activity. The Associated Press is reporting that a Utah man has been apprehended after leading police on a high speed chase in a golf cart…

“Officers started pursuing the driver after he was spotted spinning out in a city park in Morgan. He took off into an alfalfa field and jumped irrigation ditches that the sheriff’s cruisers couldn’t cross. Morgan County Sheriff’s Sgt. Scott Peay suspects the cart was fitted with a car engine instead of the original electric motor. “

Suspects? He jumped multiple ditches!

I’ll stay on the case (not really) to see what, if anything, this guy gets charged with – improper handling of a motor vehicle within 100 yards of irrigation technology? unlawful destruction of a legume crop?

Golfers Robbed at Gun Point on the 16th Tee…

Monday, June 30th, 2008

No word yet on what they’re calling this guy…the Tee Box Bandit, the Putting Green Prowler, the Winter Rules Looter?…

The robbery took place this past Saturday at Brynwood Golf Club outside Milwaukee.

When the party of six, four golfers and two caddies, reached the 16th tee shortly after 11 a.m. a lone gunman emerged from nearby woods and said, “Give me your money,” according to police. (from JSonline)


It has not yet been released how much this sandbaggin’ predator made off with. But all BCC caddies should know that the Caddy scholarship is still up for grabs…so start showing up for work with a glock and always keep your head on a swivel.

…the Mulligan Mugger, the Pitch ‘n Putt Perp, the Lateral Hazard Larcenist?
