New York man accused of hiding in woman's couch
© 2008 The Associated Press
NEWBURGH, N.Y. ?- Police say a New York man cut a hole in a woman's couch and hid in the carved-out space until she came home. Newburgh police said the woman sat on the couch Wednesday evening and felt a bump in the cushions move.
She jumped up and David Joe Limones emerged from his hiding place, knocking a cell phone out of her hand.
The woman was on the phone with a friend when she entered her apartment because she had filed an earlier complaint against Limones and was worried he might be there. Police said she had asked the friend to stay on the line and call police if something went wrong.
When officers arrived, they found Limones and the 22-year-old woman arguing on the apartment's balcony.
Limones, 27, faces burglary and other charges. He is being held on $20,000 bail.
County officials, including those at the public defenders office and the sheriff's department, were unable to provide the name of Limones' lawyer
A story worthy of the Roiters channel, even.
I don't know why but this made me laugh so hard...can you imagine? I can just picture the guy climbing out of the hole in the couch-while the woman's like, 'what the heck- you frikking ruined my COUCH,' and the guy sidling toward the door saying something like,. ' oh, uh, 'scuse me'.
And I know exactly where this is too.
all right edgar, what have you done with reyn?
the guy in the couch needs to meet up with that woman that was living in the guys closet.
Reyn don't play that no more. I don't know why. These offbeat stories can be fun.
first time i saw this, I read " Man cuts hole in womans crotch. "
shakes head. where is your mind, ladies? in the gutter, that's where. sad.
Actually, he was hunting for dust bunnies and decided to use a blind.
This is up there with "protecting oneself whilst being attacked by someone brandishing fresh fruit"
