If You See A Plastic Bottle On Your Tire, You Are At Risk For Theft

Thieves have found a new way of stealing cars and we are asking you to help us spread the word about their method and warn everyone to be more cautious.

YouTube
News outlets have been writing of a “new” method thieves came up with when it comes to stealing people’s cars and we believe everyone should read this and see the video in order not to be fooled and left without their vehicle. As it turns out, all the thieves need is a plastic bottle and patience. If you wonder how can a plastic bottle help in stealing someone’s car, wait until you see the video. Allegedly, the first person whose car was stolen this way was a guy from Limpopo, a South African province bordering Botswana, Zimbabwe. After people learned of this trick, some Mexican guys recorded a video that shows how it’s done. It has been seen around 6 million times already but the police believes it not only warns others to keep a close eye on their vehicles, but it also helps thieves to learn how to master the method, too. So it looks the video does more harm than help, police says.
YouTube
The first thing criminals do is target the car they want to steal. Afterwards, they place an empty plastic bottle on top of the car’s passenger side tire wedged in between the rubber and the wheel well. This does the trick because the car owners don’t take notice of it. Once they enter the car and the engine starts running, a strange noise comes from the tires. That’s the bottle cracking under the tire, but of course the drivers have no idea what is really going on, so they get off the car to inspect the problem. While they do it, they are very likely to leave the car open, with the keys inside, too. Once this happens, you already assume what the next step of the thieves is. The video is in Spanish, but it’s pretty detailed and you don’t even need to speak the language in order to understand what the person is trying to tell you. Seeing the vehicle open and running, the criminals simply jump inside it and start driving, leaving the owners in disbelief. So basically, your car can get stolen right in front of your own eyes, and you can do nothing about it.

If you believe that this only happens in Africa and Mexico, you may be wrong. It only takes for a criminal to see the video or hear of this trick in order to try it. So, whenever you have your car parked, check it thoroughly before you enter it. Or simply never leave it open with the keys inside, even if you are near by. If sharing this warning prevents even one single person from being fooled, it’s worth it. Please make sure you spread the word and warn your family and friends.

Officer finds toddler roaming the street alone, image of what he does next goes viral…

This father of two and police officer maybe only just started in the police force but he looked like a real professional after he found an abandoned toddler roaming the streets of Georgia recently. The police received a call about a small child wandering the streets alone, sent out to investigate was officer Hurst and his colleges went out to the Cuyler-Brownsville neighborhood. A picture of him holding the child and caring for her was posted online and the response was really amazing! Hurst and his colleagues took the little boy over to the emergency room to get checked over straight away, the little boy was quite understandably upset and feeling very stressed by everything that was happening. Officer Hurst was so sad about what was happening he couldn’t just leave him to be upset! Officer Hurst said:

“The boy, obviously, being so small, became very upset. He was crying. He was sobbing. I asked the hospital staff if I can hold him to comfort him and soothe him a little bit to try to calm him down, to continue getting medical care, and they said that was fine. So I picked him up.”

“Minutes later, I was standing and he was asleep on my chest, and with all my body armor and my gun belt, became very heavy holding this small child. So that’s when I decided to sit down on the bed and make it easier for him and me.”

The officer’s fatherly instincts took over and he really calmed down the toddler so well, the little boy fell straight off to sleep on his chest. That picture of him holding the child went completely viral, he just had the view that he was simply doing his job, he has been completely flooded with well-wishers and people wonderful reaction to the photo and his kind nature. The toddler is now completely safe and healthy, he is with the Georgia Department of Family & Children’s Services, now he can hopefully get placed in a safe and happy home really soon. Officer Hurst not thinking that there wasn’t anything special in what he did, said: “It’s what we do, every single day; not just me, but the 600 officers that are on this department. This job is so much more than just chasing the bad guys. It is about serving the citizens of the communities you work in and doing what they need you to do.” The police officers in the community work really hard to look after their communities, they work hard and really care, they make us feel very proud!

Hilarious Dog Accidentally Steps On The Rubber Chicken and Discovers His New Talent

Oh, those amazing canines. Their unique character and antics never fail to make our days. Despite being very friendly and loyal, many have hidden talents. All they need in order to gain confidence and share them with the world are supportive humans around them. Or, sometimes, what they need is just a rubber chicken. Like in the case with this lovely pooch. He stumbled across the toy while casually walking around the house, and the moment he stepped on it, he realized the sound it was making was an interesting one. What he did next? He started singing along the noise the toy was making and it’s pretty hilarious to watch and listen to. Take a look at this ‘musician’ in the making in the video below.

Mom thinks her son got stung by a wasp until his entire body turned blue

We all love a beautiful summer day full of warmth and sunshine. Enjoying a meal on the patio, hot dogs on the grill, s’mores over a campfire it doesn’t get much better. Unfortunately, time spent outdoors in the summer does comes with it’s downside and 3-year-old Kristoffer Nordgarden painfully experienced one of them. Summertime means no shoes, which increases your risk of injuries by accidentally stepping on a sharp object or a bee or even worse….a snake. When 3-year-old Kristoffer ran to his mother Elisabeth Nordgarden crying one day, she initially didn’t think it was too serious.
“Me and the boys were visiting my grandparents. Kristoffer began to cry a little and climbed onto my lap. We thought he had been stung by a wasp or scratched himself on a branch.”
Elisabeth Nordgarden would have never thought that this would be the most terrifying weekend of her life. A short 15 minutes after he started crying, Kristoffer’s foot began to swell and turn blue. Elisabeth called the 911 the ambulance and helicopter arrived almost instantly. They repeatedly said this is a snake bite…Elisabeth had no idea. Kristoffer received an antidote when he arrived and began to show signs of improvement. His vital signs quickly began to get worse… then even worse. It turned out that the boy had internal bleeding in his intestine, his blood value was at a 5 (11 is standard) and he had lost weight (now 33 pounds down from 44)
Soon, Elisabeth began to understand how serious this situation was, and that’s when she really began to worry.
“Vipers are much more active in the summer. More people are also out in nature, and therefore there are greater chances of encountering one”
  After a week and a half at the hospital, Kristoffer had survived!  He finally recovered and was able to go home. Despite everything, in typical 3-year-old fashion Kristoffer was back outside playing the very day he got home.  However, mom is more cautious of the places he plays and the time of day he plays. “I have much more respect for vipers now and I will ensure that my kids are wear boots when they go out in areas with high grass in the future,” she says. It’s wise to be extra cautious with vipers or any other venomous animal. Kristoffer was lucky but this could have ended in tragedy.    

Wife Shares Heartbreaking Tale About An Uganda Orphanage

Matt met his wife Dayna Mager back in high school and they both were in fact high school sweethearts too. Their first child was in October of 2015, they called her Luella, they were both delighted but just a few weeks later Dayna posted a sweet photo of her sleeping next to Luella… She really never expected that the photo would go viral! Dayna’s photo has a powerful and motivating message to deliver! She tells us that there is a really good reason for why she climbed the crib of her daughter when she screamed out. It is simply because Dayna had remembered a promise she made to her daughter! She remembers hearing a story while at a worship conference with her hubby, the two of them were sat in the audience during which time a missionary shared an amazing story with everyone. On their recent visit to Uganda, the missionary went to an orphanage, it was there they were completely shocked! There were about 100 cribs all filled with babies, but not a single baby was crying or calling out, in fact, there were no babies even making much sound at all! Now in circumstances like these, you would think that babies would call out for a little love and comfort, just a little support even, but none of theses babies did that. The missionary said something that will forever be stuck in her mind! Keep reading to find out why it was that Danya climbed into her little babies crib… Danya said:

“This was from several weeks back, yes, I climbed in the crib in hopes to soothe my screaming, teething, blushed faced, and tear-soaked little girl.”

“My husband came home to this, and I am re-posting because this captures the essence of my heart, and my ‘why…’

“There I was in the heat of this exhausting, beautiful thing we call parenthood, and I remembered a promise I made to her.”

“One of the first times Matt and I left Luella, was to a worship concert. At that conference, a missionary shared his story, and it shook me to the core.”

“A moment that would forever be burned in my fragile, hormone raging, new mommy heart that had already become 100xs more fragile after meeting her.”

“That missionary was in an orphanage in Uganda, and he has been in many before, but this one was different.”

“He walked into a nursery with over 100 filled cribs with babies. He listened in amazement and wonder as the only sound he could hear was silence.”

“A sound that is beyond rare in ANY nursery, let alone a nursery where over 100 new babies laid. He turned to his host and asked her why the nursery was silent.”

“Then, her response to him is something I will never, ever forget. EVER. This was my ‘why’ moment.”

“She looked at him and said, ‘After about a week of them being here, and crying out for countless hours, they eventually stop when they realize no one is coming for them…’” “…They stop crying when they realize no one is coming for them. Not in 10 minutes, not in 4 hours, and maybe, perhaps, not ever… “ “Broke…” “I broke. I literally could have picked up pieces of my heart scattered about the auditorium floor. But instead, it stirred in me a longing, a hunger. A promise in my spirit.” “We came home, and that night as Luella rested her tiny little 10lb body against mine and we rocked, I made a promise to her. A promise that I would always come to her.”

“Always.”

“At 2:00am when pitiful desperate squeals come through a baby monitor, I will come to her.”

“Her first hurt, her first heartbreak, we will come to her. We will be there to hold her, to let her feel, to make decisions on her own, and we will be there.”

“We will show her through our tears and frustrations at times, that it is okay to cry, and it’s ok to feel. That we will always be a safe place, and we will always come to her.”

Please SHARE this mother’s really lovely message with everyone you know. Here’s the original post that appeared on Facebook on March 31, 2016:

3-year-old dies without warning: 1 week later doctors make terrible discovery during autopsy

Jasmine Shortland’s 3-year-old son, Bryan-Andrew, got a case of the chicken pox. He had a sore neck and a little swelling, but otherwise he was fine. Bryan’s 23 year old mom dropped him and his brother, Austin off at their grandmas house. Austin had chicken pox without any complications, so Jasmine thought it wouldn’t be any different. This was about to turn into the worst day of her life quite literally a nightmare.  Now she wants other parents to be aware so that they can prevent this from ever happening to them. The morning afterward, Jasmine couldn’t wake Bryan-Andrew up.  No matter what she tried  following morning, Jasmine’s mother discovered that Bryan-Andrew would not wake up. No matter how hard she tried, even his grandma could not wake him up. Paramedics were called they quickly rushed to the scene.  But it was already too late. Bryan-Andrew was pronounced dead. “The night before he was running around. He was happy. He was laughing and joking. It just doesn’t make sense,” Jasmine told Daily Mail. The mother remembers saying “i love you” the final time.  The loss is unimaginable. How could something like this happen?  A healthy boy passes away with any serious symptoms that they knew of. It was a few weeks later that the doctors finally understood. Bryan-Andrew contracted a rare and aggressive for of steptococcus , also known as A strep.  This infection causes blood poisoning (sepsis) which makes the individual severely ill.

“There were no symptoms because it was so rare he just had normal symptoms for mumps. He had no rash, nothing that you would normally have,” Jasmine told Daily Mail.

Her only comfort was knowing he didn’t suffer because he had fallen asleep and never woke up again.

Jasmine doesn’t want any other mother or families to ever go through what she had just witnessed with her son. Now she wants to help raise awareness of this unknown danger of chickenpox.

 

UPS Driver hears woman scream ‘help’ when cops break door they realize they were fooled

What would you do if you heard someone yelling for help from inside a house? Would you go in and help?  Or would you call the police? Maybe even just keeping walking like you heard nothing? UPS driver Lee Purdy was delivering packages like every other day when this exact thing happened to him.  He ended up in this situation — and he chose to take action. He didn’t know it but this was not going to end as he expected it to. During his normal route off dropping packages off in Oregon, USA, Lee suddenly heard a scream from inside a  house he walked passed. He heard what sounded like a woman crying for help.  He stood still, not knowing what he should do next.  The voice sounded weird, as if the woman was having difficulty speaking or breathing. He called his wife to ask for advise.  She immediately advised him to call 911. The police arrived quickly. They had no idea what to expect, but, as always were ready for anything. Or at least, they thought they were ready. When they finally entered  the house they were in the living room, they realized that the house was vacant. Vacant, not including the parrot on his stick in the middle of the living room… shouting “help me”. The police were surprised — but also relieved. Lee had heard the parrot not a woman. It was sure nice that no one, not even Diego, was in need of help. Diego’s owner Susan Baird told police that this wasn’t the first time the parrot she triggered someones reaction. Lately the bird has been mocking sound from human and animals. Apparently the words ‘help me’ had been heard on television and was her latest favorite phrase.

Check out Diego’s story in the video below.
