Cops Called to Jon And Kate Gosselin's Home

(People.com) -- When Kate Gosselin appeared on Monday's "Today" show, she told host Meredith Vieira that she still loves her soon-to-be ex, "the Jon I knew." However, the stars of TLC's "Jon & Kate Plus 8" seem to have lost that loving feeling.

Around 6 p.m. Thursday, police arrived at the Gosselin family home in Wernersville, Pennsylvania, where the exes were engaged in a verbal argument. A source close to Kate Gosselin confirms she called police.

"[Police] got there and calmed the situation down," an officer tells PEOPLE. "No one was arrested and no citations were issued."

Another source says Kate called the house to find out which babysitter was helping with the children. When she didn't approve of the caretaker, an argument with Jon ensued.

"Due to the custody agreement, Kate couldn't enter the property," the source says. "The cops had no choice but to tell Kate she couldn't go past the gate."

Distraught and in tears, Kate left and checked in to a nearby hotel.

Tears are something Kate is getting used to: In this week's PEOPLE the now single mother says, "I cry all the time, in numerous airports, in airplanes."

She'd rather not have her emotional life be so public, but she says, "It's not like I can put the tears on hold. So I try to cry very incognito, behind my sunglasses. And after those tears, there's always the feeling of, 'how did I get here?' "

Police Shock Toy Cougar With Taser

Haha, what dumbasses! And why would they taser something that wasn't moving or growling at them, anyway?? Oh, and apparently there's video. LOL

WARREN, Mich. -- Warren police responded to a 911 call about a cougar on the prowl.

"It's huge; it's like a 150-pound cat," the caller told the operator.

Approximately 10 officers arrived at Bates Park on 14 Mile Road east of Van Dyke and saw what looked like a big cat in an old cement drainpipe.

"And I went back behind there and shined a light there -- and it's in there," said the caller.

Warren police shot a Taser at the animal -- hitting what turned out to be a large toy cougar.

Police Commissioner William Dwyer said officials now believe the incident was a prank, but he said his department could not take any chances since it was near a playground.

"We did what we had to do. We want to keep the city safe," said Dwyer.

Dwyer said the prank cost the city more than 1,000 police hours between the response from 10 officers and the paperwork they had to file.

If the prankster is caught, he or she could have to pay the city back for the wasted police officers and could face 90 days probation.

Police: Fake Policeman Stops Off-Duty Officer

Hahahaaa, this is great. Ironic that the town's name is Surprise, too! Hahah classic!


SURPRISE, Ariz. -- A man suspected of impersonating a police officer was arrested Tuesday after he stopped an off-duty Avondale officer and accused him of speeding, police said.

David Word was taken into custody at his home and booked into the Fourth Avenue Jail on one count of impersonating an officer.

Officer Mathew Lydic said he was en route to work at the Avondale Police Department when he heard heard a loud siren coming from a vehicle behind him near Avondale Boulevard and Van Buren Street.

Lydic said he noticed the driver of a black Crown Victoria was following him and trying to get him to pull over. Word pulled up next to Lydic's vehicle and told him he had caught the off-duty officer driving 75 mph on the freeway and between 60 to 65 mph on Avondale Boulevard.

Lydic said he then noticed the vehicle Word was driving, a black Crown Victoria, had red and yellow lights in the rear that were activated during the traffic stop.

Word asked Lydic to drive slower and Word then drove away, police said.

The off-duty officer said he was able to get Word's license plate number and learned it was registered to Word.

Surprise police tracked him down and during a telephone interview, Word said he remembered pulling Lydic over. He said he activated his rear lights to stop Lydic's vehicle from running into him while we was talking to Word, police said.

The Avondale Police Department later arrested Word without incident.
