There are ways to deal with kids in the neighborhood you might find annoying, and this is most definitely not one of them: Police in Minnesota say a woman mailed an anonymous letter to the parents of two young kids nearby saying, "The children look delicious. May I have a taste?" reports CBS Minnesota. Later came the magazine subscriptions addressed to "tasty children." The angry parents posted about it on a community Faceboook page, and Champlin police soon arrested Carrie Pernula, 38, who faces charges of making terroristic threats and stalking. She told police the two elementary school kids were noisy and repeatedly putting things on her porch. (More weird crimes stories.)
