The Blotter is a look at some of the unusual things that happen on the crime beat in
PANAMA CITY -- As people age, time seems to slip past at an increasing rate. But the observation has little sway with a 1-year trespass warning.
Police approached a man at a local hospital to tell him his free time on this earth would diminish if he didn’t promptly leave. Hospital staff had already told him to leave the bench he’d occupied.
He’d sat there to wait out the rain.
He left after police told him to leave and warned him he couldn’t return for a year’s time. And though seasons may rocket past like seconds, a year certainly didn’t pass in the time cops had hospital staff sign the warning.
The man returned to the bench, sat down and was immediately arrested.
