Police: Machete in limping man's pants

NORTH BERGEN, N.J. (UPI) -- Police in New Jersey said a patdown search of a man with a suspicious limp revealed an 18-inch machete concealed in the leg of his pants.

North Bergen Police Lt. Frank Cannella said Street Crimes Unit officers conducting surveillance near 64th Street and Cottage Place at about 10 p.m. Saturday spotted Leissam Trujillo, 27, pacing and repeatedly adjusting his pants while walking with a slight limp, The Jersey Journal, Jersey City, N.J., reported Tuesday.

Cannella said officers conducted a patdown search and discovered Trujillo was hiding an 18-inch machete in his pant leg.

Trujillo, who is facing charges of unlawful possession of a weapon and possession of a weapon for unlawful purpose, was taken to the Hudson County jail in lieu of $50,000 bail.

Cannella said police are familiar with Trujillo and he was arrested under similar circumstances Jan. 12 last year.

Suit seeks $62k for canceled wedding

CHICAGO (UPI) -- A Chicago woman's lawsuit against an ex-fiance she accuses of cheating with a woman he met at his Las Vegas bachelor party is seeking $62,814 for wedding costs.

Attorney Lauren Serafin's Cook County Circuit Court lawsuit against former fiance and fellow attorney Robert Leighton, which was filed Friday, claims the couple had been together for two years when she saw text messages on Leighton's phone indicating he met with a woman named Danielle on the night of his July 17, 2010, bachelor party in Las Vegas, the Las Vegas Sun reported Tuesday.

The suit says Serafin confronted Leighton about the messages July 28, 2010, and he initially denied anything improper happened with Danielle but he later admitted they had "made out" and called off the Aug. 21, 2010, wedding.

Leighton allegedly later admitted he had "hooked up" with Danielle, who the lawsuit states apologized to Serafin and said she did not know Leighton was involved with someone else.

The suit, which alleges breach of the promise to marry and intentional infliction of emotional distress, is seeking reimbursement totaling $62,814 for expenses including the wedding dress, bridesmaid's dresses, wedding invitations, a band reservation and non-refundable plane tickets and hotel reservations for a honeymoon in Bora Bora.

Baby born at side of interstate in Detroit

DETROIT (UPI) -- Police said a baby was born Tuesday morning at the side of Interstate 94 in Detroit when the expectant mother couldn't make it to the hospital in time.

Michigan State Police Trooper Mike Zarate said 911 dispatchers received a call at about 4:45 a.m. Tuesday about a woman in labor at the side of eastbound I-94, near the exit for Interstate 96, the Detroit Free Press reported.

Zarate said troopers arrived to discover the baby had been born with the help of Detroit Fire Department emergency medical services personnel.

"They were there to deliver the baby," he said. "Everybody's healthy."

Police said the mother and baby, who were not identified by name, were taken to Henry Ford Hospital, The Detroit News reported. Information on the conditions of the patients was not available Tuesday morning, the newspaper said.

Police: Principal punched motorist

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (UPI) -- Police in Florida said a school principal was arrested on allegations he kicked a vehicle and punched the driver because of the motorist's slow speed.

Gainesville police said Curtis Peterson, 45, principal of Gainesville charter school Caring and Sharing Learning School Inc., was arrested Friday and charged with felony assault and battery during burglary, simple battery and criminal mischief, the Gainesville Sun reported Tuesday.

Deputies said Nicholas LoCastro and his passenger, Jennifer Waite, told investigators Peterson honked the horn of his silver Chrysler minivan at them about 4:40 p.m. at the intersection of Hull Road and Southwest 34th Street.

LoCastro and Waite said Peterson pulled up beside their vehicle and tried to force them off the road. LoCastro said he responded to Peterson with an obscene gesture.

Peterson is accused of exiting his car a short time later as both vehicles were stopped in traffic, and kicking LoCastro's back bumper while shouting at the motorist through the window about his slow driving.

LoCastro said he rolled down his window to respond to Peterson and the other man reached into the window, punched him in the face and returned to his minivan.

Police said the incident is considered burglary-related because Peterson allegedly put his arm inside the vehicle without permission to commit a crime.

Sharing and Caring administrators said Peterson has been placed on administrative leave.
