Those crazy folks from Alabama!

The Rogue109 Command Center is just alive with tips this afternoon! From The Summerville News comes news that citizens of Alabama are being driven to distraction…by Christmas lights. In July. While in their car.

A hail of gunfire by Chattooga County deputies ended a two-state vehicle chase in which an Alabama woman claims she was being chased by “Christmas tree lights.” It took flattening her tires with spikes, firing 14 bullets into her car and one Alabama deputy launching a Taser into the woman’s neck to stop the 40-minute vehicle pursuit. “The offender . . . was sitting in the roadway in cuffs and talking out of her head saying, ‘I was just trying to get to my mother’s house when these Christmas tree lights started following me around and making my head hurt,’” part-time Chattooga County Deputy Wayne Norman stated.

Alrighty then. Here’s the full story along with 25 (yes, 25) photos from the aftermath of the incident with a citizen from our neighbors to the west.

    Loved the part about “speeds between 20-40 miles per hour”.

    She probably thought that if she crossed the Alabama state line into Georgia she would have an hour head start

    Rogue, you really shouldn’t put drugs into your dates’ drinks to get ‘em to make out with you. Bad things happen.

    Just checked it out. I didn’t realize that your command center was in SpaceyG’s living room.

    Coming from a woman that has to put a bag over her head in order to attract a mate, I’ll file your comments appropriately.
