Lawyer who targets drunk drivers guilty of DUI

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - A lawyer known for suing drunken drivers has been convicted of driving while impaired.

Ron Bell was found guilty of three counts Tuesday, including DUI, speeding and failure to maintain a traffic lane.

Bell was stopped in June 2010 by an off-duty Bernalillo County sheriff's deputy. Bell failed some field sobriety tests and a toxicology report showed he had amphetamine in his system.

Bell takes Adderall, which contains amphetamine, for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

A toxicology expert testified that the level in Bell's system was enough to impair a normal person's driving. Bell's attorney argued there was no evidence Bell was incapable of driving.

Bell was ordered to pay a fine and perform community service. He also must attend DUI school and use an interlock ignition device for one year.

Monkeys in pirate suits confiscated in La

NEW ORLEANS, March 2 (UPI) -- Louisiana wildlife officials confiscated four monkeys in pirate costumes from an autistic woman visiting New Orleans for Carnival.

Joan Newberger, 66, and her caretaker, James Poole, said they and the four monkeys were dressed as pirates on Bourbon Street during the weekend when police and wildlife agents approached them and seized the small primates, WWLT-TV, New Orleans, reported Wednesday.

Newberger said the seizure was illegal because the primates are registered as her "service monkeys" with a group in Texas. However, the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries said the monkeys do not meet the Americans with Disabilities Act's definition of service animals.

Possession of primates has been illegal in Louisiana since 2006.

Newberger is scheduled to appear in the Orleans Parish Municipal Court in July to attempt to get her monkeys back.

"This isn't some wild animal that we snatched out of the swamp in New Orleans and we're running around making money on it," Poole said.

Greeter charged with robbery of own Walmart

STATESVILLE, N.C. - Police in Statesville, N.C., say an 83-year-old man who worked at a Wal-Mart store as a greeter is in jail, charged with donning a disguise and robbing the store at gunpoint Sunday night.

George Plane Jr., of Mooresville, N.S., was charged with robbery with a dangerous weapon and discharging a firearm inside the city limits, police say.

According to police, Plane was working Sunday evening in his normal job at the Wal-Mart store. Sometime before 7 p.m., police say, Plane went out to his car.

Minutes later, a man wearing a disguise returned to the garden center area of the store and allegedly pointed a gun at an employee, demanding money from the cash register. Soon after taking money, police say, the gunman fired at least one shot into the air. Police say the man escaped with money, got in his car, and drove off.

Witnesses called police, and the N.C. Highway Patrol and Iredell County Sheriff's Office joined Statesville police in spotting the vehicle a short distance away. The man in the car surrendered after a brief standoff.

Statesville police Capt. T.C. Souther told WCNC-TV he was surprised when he saw the age on Plane's driver's license, saying the man didn't look his age.

"He appeared to be in good shape," Souther said.
