Granny's a Ball Hog
Evidently no longer content to merely bark at passers-by to "stay off my lawn," Blue Ash, OH octogenarian Edna Jester was arrested last week after she allegedly refused to return a neighborhood boy's football that had landed in her yard.
Mrs. Jester (that isn't her in the picture. It's a cheap stock photo of an angry old woman) had tired of constantly retrieving the pigskin and threatened to keep the ball the next time it bounced into her property. When it did, she latched onto it like it was the last can of Ensure in the tri-state region and refused to give it back. Even when the police were called and informed her that she would be arrested if she didn't drop the ball, she still steadfastly held on to it. Police then had no choice but to book her. The arrest for petty theft is Mrs. Jester's first.
And she still has the ball.
