    Man coughs up cocaine after being arrested for marijuana

    A suspected drug dealer's attempt to conceal a small bag of cocaine from police nearly turned fatal.

    According to a police document, officers in Coram, N.Y., arrested Terrance Haynes on March 1 after a drug deal that involved marijuana.

    As police prepared to book Haynes at the local precinct, they noticed that he was unable to speak and was having difficulty breathing. When he began to turn blue, an officer performed the Heimlich maneuver on the choking man.

    Haynes reportedly then coughed out a small plastic bag that contained 11 packets of cocaine. If he had ingested that amount of cocaine, the results would have been deadly, the report said.

    Haynes was taken to a hospital, where he was found to be unharmed. He was returned to police custody and charged with criminal possession of marijuana and criminal possession of a controlled substance.

    Although the suspect narrowly avoided death, he will have a difficult time dodging the maximum 25-year jail term associated with the cocaine charge. The initial marijuana charge only carried a maximum 90-day sentence.

    Man makes 30 calls to police in one night

    When James J. Babcock decided to complain about a personal dispute, authorities in Greenville, N.Y., got his message — 30 of them, to be exact.

    But before Babcock, 39, tied up the main phone line of his town's police department, he had already made a nuisance of himself with another police department in Louisiana.

    According to Sgt. Sal Mecca, Babcock was involved in a civil dispute with a woman in Louisiana over an Internet purchase. Babcock allegedly made several phone calls to the woman and her local precinct on March 1 until the desk sergeant called police in Greenville. He asked that Greenville authorities contact Babcock and advise him to stop calling the woman and their department.

    "[Babcock] became irate when our desk trooper told him to stop with the prank calls," Mecca said.

    Babcock asked to speak to an officer of higher rank, who delivered the same message. But the disgruntled man refused to take "No" for an answer. He reportedly called back 30 times and harassed officers on a line that also doubles as an emergency line, according to Mecca.

    The department turned to the local phone company, and a temporary block was placed on Babcock's number to prevent him from calling in.

    When officers went to Babcock's home to place him under arrest, he refused to open the door. Instead, he answered a criminal summons that was issued the next day.

    He was charged with aggravated harassment and disorderly conduct. His case is pending.

    The first article reminded me of a story I heard where a man was smuggling cocaine on an airplane in packets by ingesting them. As they were in mid-flight, the packets burst and the man went into cardiac arrest and died. Fucked up.

    Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
