Shoplifting. A man entered a big box store with a bottle of vodka and acted suspiciously enough to attract the attention of the store's loss prevention officer.

The employee was following the man when the man grabbed a pair of gold colored bracelets from the store's jewelry section, removed the tag, and hid them in a bag. The man then left the store without paying for the jewelry — worth $6.29 overall.

He was outside the entrance, still drinking the vodka, when a deputy arrived to arrest him.

Battery. A teenager riding a school bus made a paper airplane out of a gum wrapper and tossed it toward one of his friends. But he missed, and the airplane landed on a girl's seat.

The girl got angry and tossed a metal water bottle at the boy, hitting him and causing a "very minor injury," according to a report by a deputy who investigated the incident. Deputies are investigating.
