Credit Card Skimmers Found IN Gas Pumps
As if we weren’t getting robbed at the pump by gas prices, now you can really get robbed at the pump. Ugh, I hate scumbag crooks like this.
A pair of high-tech bandits were able to steal more than 3,600 credit card numbers with six electronic devices — known as “skimmers” — planted at five gas stations in Mountain View and Los Altos, according to the county district attorney.

Man Jailed for Possessing 91 Pounds of Tortilla Dough
Antonio Hernandez Carranza took a wrong turn, and it turned out to be one of the biggest mistakes he’s ever made. The Carson, Calif., man had driven more than 2,000 miles — three days straight — to see his sister in Johnson City, Tenn.
But instead of reaching the home of his sister, whom he hadn’t seen in nearly a decade, the 45-year-old carpet cleaner found himself in the Buncombe County jail under a $300,000 bond on charges of driving while intoxicated, failing to heed police lights and sirens and possession of 91 pounds of cocaine.
He was released four days later after sheriff’s deputies realized Hernandez, who said he doesn’t drink at all, wasn’t intoxicated and that what was in the back of his truck was exactly what he had said — $400 worth of cheese, shrimp and tortilla and tamale dough meant as a gift to his sister.
