On the Way to the Grinder

The Wyoming County (N.Y.) Sheriff’s Office received a report of a “suspicious vehicle” near the town of Wethersfield. What made it suspicious? It had no license plates. It would have been a four-door, but it didn’t have any doors. No windshield, either. The one thing it did have: a large axe embedded in the roof. Deputies quickly located the vehicle and found the driver, Jared T. Price, 21, was “impaired by multiple different drug categories,” a spokesman said. Not surprisingly, “Price performed poorly on field sobriety testing and was taken into custody.” There was no comment on why the car was in such poor condition, or why an axe was embedded in its roof.
