Missouri police chase ends in yard with ‘F*** Around and Find Out' sign
CLAY COUNTY, Mo. – A Missouri police chase ended with an ironic twist last weekend: In a yard marked by a sign that read, 'Presented by: F*** Around and Find Out.'
The Clay County Sheriff's Office reports that the chase led to the arrest of Eric E. Frazer, 53, a suspect wanted for drug trafficking.
The chase occurred around 2 p.m. Saturday on Jesse James Farm Road near Missouri Route 92.
Authorities attempted to arrest Frazer on a warrant for drug trafficking when he allegedly fled from Clay County deputies.
The sheriff's office says, at one point, Frazer swerved toward one a deputy who was attempting to deploy a spike strip. Frazer eventually struck another spike strip and came to a stop in the 16800 block of Ragsdale Road, leading to his arrest in the yard with the now-infamous sign.
Turns out, based on investigator accounts, someone ran and quite literally found out.
The Clay County Prosecuting Attorney's Office has charged Frazer with one count of aggravated fleeing a stop or detention. The charge falls under Missouri's Valentine's Law, which took effect last year and imposes stricter penalties on individuals who flee from police.
Clay County is located roughly half an hour north of Kansas City.

Owensboro neighborhood USPS mail delivery suspended for over a month
OWENSBORO, Ky. (WEHT) — In Owensboro, residents are demanding answers after their mail delivery suddenly stopped for several weeks. People living near Texas Avenue say they now have to drive several miles just to get their mail. Postal officials say it'll be that way until an investigation wraps up. Ebach Street is one of three roads in a neighborhood where mail delivery just stopped without warning. Many didn't even know there was an issue until they arrived at the post office. They say they were told they would have to pick up their mail at the post office until further notice. Two sentenced on plea agreements in 2024 bust Neighbors say they first noticed the change during Derby weekend the first weekend in May. The Kentucky representative for USPS, Susan Wright, says its all due to reports in April that a mail carrier was hit by BB gun pellets while delivering on Texas Avenue. They say everyone on Nelson Avenue, Ebach Street and Texas Avenue are affected. While several say they had no notification of the change, one person shared they received an email with instructions. She says after careful consideration and guidance from the United states postal inspection service, they decided to suspend delivery until further notice.'I talked to the the postmaster this morning and he said 'when the inspector makes his decision'. I said 'it's been five weeks shouldn't somebody have made a decision,' says Charles Harrison Harrison went on to share there are older residents who no longer have the ability to drive. One resident taking care of her father even mentioned in the grey area of figuring out what was happening, his insurance almost lapsed. Roderick Crite says without a car himself its a huge inconvenience but he has a family member drive him at least two times a week to pick up the mail. He says he spoke with the inspector before entering his home one day.'Probably about two or three weeks ago, and he was saying that he was trying to get the mail started back up, but he needed to know what was going on. I told him that I wouldn't think that any kids around here would do it,' says Crite. He says it may have been kids passing through the neighborhood, but either way he looks forward to getting his mail delivered again. Officials say they are working hard to find a solution to get service back to normal, while ensuring a safe working environment for their carriers. There is no official word on when exactly that may be. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Los Gatos family ‘lost everything' after fire destroys home, thieves loot what was left
LOS GATOS, Calif. (KRON) — A Los Gatos family loses everything after their home of almost 30 years catches fire. Then, thieves targeted the home — looting what was left. The family of five is now displaced, and the home is locked up. Walls have kept anyone from entering the home, and the community is now rallying around the family to help. 'Raising three kids here, living our life here, it's actually surreal,' said homeowner Jeff Burdsall. Last Thursday, just after noon, the Burdsall's family home of 29 years quickly went up in flames. The home and almost everything in it — wiped out. 'Worst thing you can ever hear is your son screaming the house is on fire, and the first thing I thought was he was inside,' Burdsall said. 'It's memories, and it's hard to replace those memories that were lost, but it's just memories, and we'll keep it with us, and it's just physical things that we can replace.' Another food business in SF Ferry Building to close Thankfully, no one was hurt. The next day, Burdsall went to see if anything could be saved and was shocked to find he wasn't the only one who had been inside. 'I noticed when I opened the makeshift door that things were moved around, and it didn't make things and somebody had looted us,' Burdsall said. 'I just stood here, and at one point, I just started bawling because you're down, and then somebody does thi,s and it just feels like a swift kick in the head.' The thieves took his wife's jewelry, his melted headphones, his daughter's old phone, her grandfather's guitar, and whatever else was spared by the fire. Burdsall says the heartbreak is unimaginable, but the silver lining has been a wave of support as they figure out what to do next. 'It's amazing — the outpouring of love for people you never met before and your neighbors and the community,' Burdsall said. 'I'm grateful.' The cause of the fire is under investigation. A GoFundMe has been set up to help the Burdsall family. It has raised nearly $5,000 as of this report. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
