‘Do you recognize this mullet?' California police department asks
A Southern California police department is having a little fun at the expense of a theft suspect they are trying to locate and arrest. As part of its Wanted Wednesday series, Irvine police released security camera photos of two men accused of recently stealing a person's wallet from Trader Joe's at 4225 Campus Drive. They later used the victim's credit card to buy a phone at a nearby Best Buy, police said. 'One of the individuals was sporting indoor sunglasses and a mullet, bold fashion choices,' Irvine PD noted in a social media post captioned, 'Do you recognize this mullet?' 'We've got questions: Is the mullet making a comeback? Is it still 'business in the front, party in the back' if you commit a crime?' the post said. 'And most importantly…do you recognize this duo?' Police are asking anyone with information to email authorities at svoigt@ 'Help us bring justice and maybe a new hair stylist into this situation,' police joked. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Former church financial secretary arrested for allegedly embezzling over $570K
NASSAU COUNTY, FL (QUEEN CITY NEWS) — A former financial secretary at Amelia Baptist Church has been arrested for allegedly embezzling more than half a million dollars from the church over the span of several years, according to the Nassau County Sheriff's Office. Melissa Ganey English, 44, was taken into custody after an investigation revealed that she used a church-issued credit card for personal expenses between 2019 and 2024, including Amazon purchases, concert tickets, cruises, and even a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon. English, who had worked at the church for more than a decade, was terminated after two new financial committee members noticed discrepancies in the books. A full audit later uncovered years of unauthorized spending, with the total estimated at over $570,000. A warrant was issued for English's arrest on March 25. She was located and arrested in Baker County following a 'Wanted Wednesday' post on April 9, 2025. She now faces a first-degree felony charge of grand theft over $100,000.
