Hard to believe this calm-looking soul would be involved in huffing gasoline...

Why don’t we just have an area to contain people and let them huff until they drop?

It does conjure quite a whimsical mental picture doesn’t it? On a side note, how out of shape were the cops if two of them couldn’t catch a guy who was huffing while trying to evade them? If a fleeing suspect has time to abuse inhalants and you still can’t catch up, it’s time to get on the treadmill man!

Maybe you been using the wrong fuel blend? I just saw the sequel to this story on the local news. A teenager was holding another teenager hostage in a home in Fortuna just south of Eureka. Apparently the kidnapper got the message when the PD showed up holding 105 Howitzers with flashlights taped to the barrel. He surrender for 2 packs of Menthol cigs.
Apparently he didn't get the memo that the jail is a smoke free zone...
