Scoob News

Good evening, I'm Anthony J. Scoobington, with WSCB TV



A second woman has been charged in the bleach and Pine-Sol fight in a Baltimore County Wal-mart in the fall. Ebony Odoms, 27, has been indicted on charges of first-degree assault, reckless endangerment and destruction of property in connection with the Oct. 8 that caused 19 people to be taken to area hospitals due to chemical fumes. On a brighter note, the first woman charged in the fight, Theresa Monique Jefferson, has been offered a mgmt. position by several local janitorial companies due to her extensive knowledge of cleaning products.



Hundreds of people protesting the doubling of fuel prices after a government subsidy was ended blocked roads in Nigeria's commercial capital of Lagos, burned tires, forced gas stations to close and hijacked buses Tuesday. Protests also occurred in Kano in the north, the Niger Delta in the southeast and in Ilorin in the west, where Nigerian Labor Congress party officials said one man was shot to death. It's believed that it took 27 people to chip in to buy one gallon of gas, that was used to start the tire fires.



An Army Green Beret member facing charges in Texas that he tried to bring explosives onto a civilian aircraft over the weekend had been involved in a similar incident, federal officials said Tuesday. Sgt. Trey Scott Atwater, 30, was briefly detained Dec. 24 at the airport in Fayetteville, N.C., where he was flying to Texas. Screeners found and confiscated a military smoke grenade in his bag. He was admonished but allowed to continue his trip, the complaint states. Sgt. Atwater was overheard saying, "I bought the shit because they take forever with my drinks. This would put some pep in their step!!"



From the folks at WSCB have a great evening. Stay hydrated.
