## Resource

When police reports go wild, cartoonist Steve Stegelin turns chaos into comedy. From excavators to superheroes, he draws the bizarre—like shoplifters snagging Disney bags alongside fancy meats or a woman bathing in a public fountain. Highlights include a guy covered in feces stealing beer, a woman “proving innocence” by stripping, and a viral deepfake hoax tied to Dragon Con. The year’s top story? A wine thief caught seven times—emptying bottles in bathrooms and leaving empties behind—until cameras caught her eighth attempt. It’s absurdity meets art, and it’s hilarious.
