Deputies Raid Wrong Address, Kill Couple’s Dog

An Accokeek couple is demanding an apology after Prince George’s County Sheriff’s Deputies burst into their home and killed their dog – all because deputies went to the wrong address.

Pam and Frank Myers were tucked away in their home Friday night watching a movie when the warrant squad pounced.

“All of a sudden I hear, bang, bang, bang, ‘Open the door, police, open the door,'” said Pam Myers.

For 45 minutes the Myers were kept prisoner in their own home.

“They wouldn’t let me go to the bathroom which is like seven feet down the hall,” said Frank Myers.

Towards Warp Speed

“No, this is not a review of Star Trek. Rather, it is an examination of the possibility of real faster than light travel. And if you think this has nothing to do with the news, then think again.
This week sees the British Interplanetary Society holding a conference to discuss the possibilities of a warp drive, thus making travel to the stars a real possibility. Physicists will be attending from all over the planet – arriving by conventional means, of course.”
