Baraboo, Wisconsin (The Weekly Vice) - Jonathan Popple, a 26-year-old Wisconsin man was jailed Saturday after he reportedly smoked pot and then shot a hole into the floor, thinking he was shooting an alien.

According to Baraboo Police, officers were dispatched when a neighbor reported hearing gunshots coming from inside the building.

Officers arrived to find Popple, who explained that he had been smoking pot since waking up that day - and decided being stoned was an excellent time to clean his gun.

Investigators say Popple described a sudden sensation of standing on a rock, looking down at an alien he had seen in a movie. That's when he reportedly pointed his gun at the aberration and fired. The bullet reportedly went through Popple's floor and into the basement.

Popple said he snapped out of it enough to realize that his brother was in the basement, so he ran downstairs to make sure he was okay.

When officers searched the premises for the alien inducing pot, Popple reportedly complained that he owed money for it, and that if they took it he wouldn't be able to pay what he owned.

Investigators explained that officer bleeding heart was off-duty that day and commenced with their search anyway.

Police reportedly found an electronic scale, a cigarette roller and four quarter-ounce bags of marijuana in Popple's room.

Popple was booked into the Sauk County Jail on charges of possession with intent to deliver and possessing a firearm while intoxicated. Popple remains incarcerated despite a $250 bond.

Homeless Man Calls 911 For Help, Gets Kick In The Ass Instead

Beaverton, Oregon (The Weekly Vice) - Mark Eskelsen, a 45-year-old homeless man, was arrested Sunday after he allegedly called 911 asking for a hug and hot chocolate.

According to Beaverton Police, Eskelsen allegedly snuck into a private property hot tub. After soaking in the tub for several hours, Eskelsen apparently thought he needed help.

Police say Eskelsen allegedly yelled for help until his voice was hoarse. When that didn't fetch a response, He reportedly used his cell phone to call 911.

According to the 911 call, Eskelson spoke with the operator just after 7am and stated that he had been in the tub for 10 hours. He went on to say he "just needed a hug and warm cup of hot chocolate with marshmellows in it."

Eskelson also explained that he was having trouble getting out of the tub due to a recent surgery he had for a double-hernia.

Eskelson was taken to jail and charged with misuse of 911 and criminal trespass. He plead guilty Monday and was sentenced to 30 days in jail.

Coincidentally, Eskelson's phone was later checked and it was confirmed that he never called 911 from his cell phone. Investigators say he actually dialed 411, which was then switched over to 911 when Eskelson explained that he needed help.

The Weekly Vice Opinion

In my opinion, how can he be found guilty of misuse of 911 when 1) he didn't even call 911 and 2) if he was in the tub for 10 hours, he really did need help and 3) he was obviously trying to get help or he wouldn't have been yelling loud enough for the residence to hear him. I'd need a hug too if I was afraid of drowning or dehydrating. I hope I never get hurt in Oregon and have to call 911.
