That was Close

Update: Ridgeland police arrested Robert Herring for DUI.  He allegedly reeked of spirits and there were several empty bottles of booze in his vehicle.

 This is not something one sees every day at Renaissance. 

 


Ridgeland Police Chief Bryan Myers said the driver had a medical emergency.  Thankfully, no one was injured.

“medical emergency”


OK Chief.

Almost as bad as the parking jobs I see in Highland Village.

Per Renaissance comment, “It seems that an impaired fellow jumped a curb and went airborne. Fortunately, no one was injured or close to the flying vehicle. All cleaned up, and RPD gave the driver a ride to the police station.”

Barnett's, on 51 in Ridgeland, can buff that out!

Has your parked vehicle become the victim of a "medical emergency"? Remember 1 call. We can help restore your vehicle back to its original condition & get you the damages you deserve.

Oh it's coming

Would this be considered double parking? Or triple?

Again, what is the make and model of the white car in the photograph?

I've awaited the moment for sooooooooo long. Soooo long, soooo...well, you know the song.

Was he arrested in Birmingham several hours earlier for DUI? Not sure if it’s the same guy but the same name.

Our Federal Government just approved flying cars this week. You can put $150 down to get in line.

So, now the new chief is left to explain this:

"Ridgeland Police Chief Bryan Myers said the driver had a medical emergency."

Well, when one needs to take a piss really, really bad...I mean REAL bad, when it gets to burning and you're looking around like a bobble-head and about to scream, while feeling tiny spurts about to erupt in a large stream...Hell! That's a medical emergency. Plus he was drunk as Cooter Brown.

My final answer, Regis: State Farm cancels!

That would be surprising if so. Generally when folks are booked for DUI, they are held until they sober up before being released. Of course he could have made bond in Birmingham and then drove and drank his way to Ridgeland. Dang! That’s a good title for a country music song!

How did he get his drunk A** out of that car? I have a good idea where he “spent the night”.

8:45 - Looks a lot like my 2021 Honda Accord

I mean how drunk does one have to be to do this in a parking lot? I've done some pretty ignorant things in my life and I still don't think I could have achieved this.

The landscaping will need to be spiffed up a bit there after the crash.

What's the Bond, written or cash, for Medical Emergency? Haven't been able to find any statute for Medical Emergency in the MS Code 1972 or on any ticket book I have.

Does a Code Brown qualify as a medical emergency?

There's an advertisement here: "CSPIRE - we're there when you run out of bandwidth."

...Or an advertisement for how CSpire has made me also want to drink to excess on multiple occasions.

There is no telling how many DUI's this fellow has had in the past.

I bet this was the nutjob who tried to threaten everyone in every medical cannabis discussion about how he will be photographing license plates at dispensaries to submit to the ATF.

I've often heard that weed can make your imagination run fuckin' wild, 2:49. Thank you for witnessing.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
