Infelicitous Felix

A stolen car crashed, and Oak Bluffs, Mass., police say Felix Reagan, 19, is a suspect. A man knocked on a door, purporting to seek someone who did not live there, and they say Reagan is a suspect. They say he’s a suspect, too, in a home break-in. He was found, police say, with “purple paint on his pants” — and the dog in the burgled home had been painted purple. The charges against him include animal cruelty. (AC/Springfield Republican) ...Purple should be reserved for a royal animal, such as a cat.
