JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (WSVN) — A Florida woman is using a unique method in her preps for Hurricane Dorian.
According to Fox 30, Jacksonville resident Brittany Vidal used heavy duty plastic, 300 sandbags and a lot of duct tape to ensure her home is prepared for potential flooding from the storm.
Vidal dealt with flooding during Hurricanes Irma and Matthew, so she is hoping this will make a difference.
“Hopefully our barricade will do something for us this year, but at least we can immediately start getting fans, get things going–” she said.
Vidal is in an evacuation zone, but she said she plans to wait out the storm.
“If it works, it’s totally worth it,” Vidal said.

The reporter who interviewed her is wrong for not speaking up and telling her that the plastic bags won’t do shyt if the hurricane hits her home. I bet he was making this face as she explained her plastic barricade.

SAFETY HARBOR, Fla. (AP) — Authorities say a burglar broke into a Florida home, cooked himself an early morning meal and told the resident there to “go back to sleep.”
The home’s occupant told investigators he awoke to discover the man cooking and eating sometime after 4 a.m. Tuesday.
Fox 13 in Tampa reported the burglar ran from the house when the resident called 911. Deputies from the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office tracked down the suspect in a wooded and swampy area behind the home.
Deputies said Gavin Crim, a 19-year-old Marine, allegedly entered the home through an unlocked rear door.
An arrest report mentioned that the suspect may have been under the influence of alcohol.

Man throws urine on prosecutor during sentencing hearing
Associated Press
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — Police say a 28-year-old man awaiting sentencing on an attempted murder charge tossed urine on the prosecutor inside a Florida courtroom.
The attack happened Wednesday in Broward Circuit Judge Susan Alspector’s courtroom. Albert Narvaez is now also charged with battery for his attack on Broward Assistant State Attorney Andrew Newman.
A Broward Sheriff’s arrest report says urine went inside Newman’s mouth and all over his clothing. The report didn’t say what kind of container Narvaez used to store the urine in the courtroom.
The Miami Herald reports Narvaez charged at Newman, flung the urine at him and yelled, “He told me to do it!” He didn’t say who he was referring to.
The sentencing hearing was postponed.
Chief Assistant State Attorney Jeff Marcus said they’re “absolutely incensed” by the incident.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Authorities in Florida say they’ve arrested 85 people in a months-long, human trafficking sting.
The Tampa Bay Times reports that Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister announced the arrests Monday.
Officials say “Operation Trade Secrets” began at the beginning of the year, focusing on hotels, motels, spas, massage parlors, strip clubs, adult bookstores and other activities.
Chronister says one of the people arrested was a sex trafficker, while others face charges such as prostitution, child pornography and voyeurism.
Florida had the third-most calls last year to the National Human Trafficking Hotline.
Human trafficking is a particular concern for Tampa, which will host the Super Bowl in 2021. The FBI netted 169 arrests in a sex trafficking sting around Atlanta during this year’s NFL championship game.

Florida couple caught having sex in patrol car after DUI arrest
Of course this happened in Florida -- and on Friday the 13th, no less
By Erik Avanier - Reporter, Garrett Pelican - Digital executive producer
FERNANDINA BEACH, Fla. - Deputies say a Florida couple arrested on suspicion of cycling under the influence on Friday the 13th didn't let that stop them from having sex in the back of a patrol car.
This bizarre episode unfolded about 11:40 p.m. that night in Fernandina Beach, according to their arrest reports. A Nassau County deputy stopped the couple after they were nearly struck by a car they cut off while crossing South Fletcher Avenue. Smelling alcohol, the deputy placed both under arrest.
Things took a sordid turn when the arresting deputy noticed the couple had shed their clothes and were starting to have sex in the back of his patrol car. When deputies opened the car door to intervene, the naked man knocked a deputy to the ground and took off running into the night.
Deputies said the woman, 35-year-old Megan Lynn Mondanaro, grew violent with deputies while they transferred her to a separate vehicle. She was taken down and later checked out at the hospital. Her blood alcohol content was .06 when she took a breathalyzer three hours later, deputies said.
The man, 31-year-old Aaron Seth Thomas, was later taken into custody after deputies caught up to him at a nearby Cold Stone Creamery. Deputies said Thomas' blood alcohol content was .145, which is nearly twice the legal limit in Florida.
Both Thomas and Mondanaro were booked into the Nassau County jail on several charges including resisting with violence, unnatural and lascivious act, exposure of sexual organs, and driving under the influence. As of Monday, both remained in custody.

Katie Gates (Nassau County Sheriff's Office)
CALLAHAN, Fla. (CBS12) — A 19-year-old woman is behind bars after reportedly threatening her family over tomatoes, the Nassau County Sheriff's Office said.
On Sept. 12, deputies responded to a home in reference to a domestic dispute involving a knife, according to the sheriff's office. The 73-year-old homeowner told deputies her granddaughter, Katie Gates, that she got angry because she wanted to eat "more than her fair share of tomatoes at the dinner table."
Gates threw a fit that she couldn't have more tomatoes and started being disrespectful to the other adults in the house, the sheriff's office said. This enraged the elderly adults. Gates then threw a water bottle at her grandfather and almost hit him.
She then angrily threw a pack of cigarettes at her grandmother, hitting her in the top part of her eye, according to the sheriff's office. Then, Gates grabbed a knife and chased her grandfather out of the house while yelling obscenities. She poked the knife in his face, almost striking him.
When her grandmother yelled she was calling the police, Gates ran back into the kitchen and threw the knife on the counter, where deputies later found it.
Katie Gates is now facing charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and battery on a person over 65 years old.
She was released on a $18,000 bond.
