DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) -- A man going through a courthouse metal detector emptied his pockets, tossing a small bag of marijuana into the security tray.

When Clyde Lamar Pace II realized what he had done, he tried to flee. But he ran the wrong way from Polk County deputies into a locked revolving door.

"He threw in a baggie of marijuana without realizing it, and the person working the security post said, 'Hey, what is this?"' said Chief Deputy Bill Vaughn. "He kind of gave that old I've-been-caught look, and the chase was on."

Pace, 18, first tried to retrace his steps, then ran through the building before he was stopped by deputies at the locked door.

4. see olberman last night & indignant drug dealer accused of robbery?

on tape the guy was incensed at a hearing when he was accused of bank robbery. he stated angrily that he had nothing to do with the robbery, all he was doing was sitting in the car waiting for his customer to get money to pay for the drugs he was selling. he said he had no idea the drug buying customer had gone into the bank to rob it for the money to buy his drugs.

the judge kept telling him to remember that anything he said could be used against him, but the perp kept on declaring that he was a drug dealer, but no thief.

like someone saying "hey dammit! i'm a murderer, but i'm no rapist!"

5. A man tossed a pot pipe with resin into the tray

at our court house last year. It was a metal pipe, so I guess he thought it would set off the metal detector.
