University of Texas Longhorns safety Christian Scott, having fallen behind on payments on his 2000 Cadillac, was arrested August 8 following an incident in which he allegedly "grabbed a woman who was attempting to repossess his car, forced her out of the vehicle, and flung her onto an asphalt parking lot," according to the American-Statesman.
A whole bunch of parents got police and a state trooper called to a 7-and-8-year-olds' Little League game in Maryland when a debate about unfair officiating went bizarrely wrong, including: "Racial and gay slurs directed at players; a slew of profanity, particularly by people trying to disperse an angry crowd of parents and league officials; and a mother who was allegedly grabbed and pushed against a fence, causing an arm injury she had examined at the hospital," according to the Herald-Mail. No arrests were made.
