‘Flamingo felons' arrested after statue stolen for second time
Two men were arrested after a flamingo statue was stolen in Parma. [DOWNLOAD: Free WHIO-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] The statue, which Parma City Councilman Kevin Kussmaul said was purchased in honor of a little girl with autism, was ripped away Saturday, CBS-affiliate WOIO reported. The Parma sign's flamingo statue was first stolen in May 2024. Three men who Parma police dubbed the 'flamingo felons' were sentenced to 10 days in jail for that crime. Detectives found surveillance footage that captured a white Ford Escape passing through the intersection early Saturday. TRENDING STORIES: 5-year-old expected to survive after suspected drunk driver runs red light Solicitor doesn't have required permits, resists arrest after reports of suspicious behavior Conner Smith hits, kills 77-year-old woman walking in crosswalk, police say Two men were seen getting out and loading the flamingo into the car, police said. The registered owner told detectives their 20-year-old son, who lives in their home, had access to the car, police said. The son cooperated with detectives, who then recovered the flamingo. Police identified the son as 20-year-old Colin Donald Deka. The other suspect was identified by police as 21-year-old Jack Christopher Klamert. Both Valley View men were arrested and charged with fifth-degree felony theft, police stated. [SIGN UP: WHIO-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter]

Armed crooks posing as Amazon deliverymen tie up, rob Queens family
Two armed crooks posing as Amazon deliverymen raided a Queens home, terrorizing a family of five including two small children, police said Tuesday. Cops from the 109th Precinct released surveillance images of the two suspects and asked the public's help identifying them and tracking them down. One of the robbers was wearing a yellow reflective vest when the pair approached the single-family home on 152nd St. and 12th Ave. in Whitestone about 6:30 a.m. Monday. The second man was carrying a large Amazon box. The two barged into the home, pulled guns and ordered the family — a 43-year-old father, 39-year-old mom, 18-year-old daughter, 10-year-old boy and 5-year-old girl — into the basement where they were zip-tied and had their mouths sealed with duct tape. The two crooks then went through the home, making off with an undisclosed amount of cash and jewelry. They fled in the victims' Chrysler, which was later found abandoned four blocks away from the victims' home, cops said. The family was not hurt. A few minutes after the robbers left, the father was able to free himself and ran outside for help, neighbors said. 'I just see this man come running out of his house with duct tape on him,' one neighbor told CBS News New York. 'He was definitely disheveled. He was definitely scared and he probably didn't know what just happened himself.' Neighbors were stunned by the brazen robbery, which happened across the street from a local public school. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
