Fresno police say they will not file charges after two
children were found unconscious in a car.

Monday, Fresno police closed the case saying they
found no criminal negligence.

On August 17th, two children were in an unlocked car
for about 45 minutes in 99 degree heat before family
members found them.

Two-year-old Brianne Munguia has since been released
from the hospital.

Her four-year-old brother, Joseph, remains in fair
condition at Children's Hospital.

More charges have been filed against a Fresno teen
accused of murder over a fish tank.

Jay Xiong is now facing a gang enhancement in the
fatal shooting of Tony Colombo. Xiong has pleaded not
guilty to all allegations.
The 61-year-old victim died in July after being shot
in the chest.

Detectives claim Colombo confronted a group of teenage
boys who had stolen an aquarium from his porch.

Monday morning, Colombo's family wore t-shirts with
his picture to court to show their support.

"He would of gave it to them had the guy asked for it.
He could have had it, you know. He didn't think he'd
use the gun," said the victim's son, Joe Colombo.

Prosecutors believe Xiong committed the crime to
benefit a criminal street gang.

The 18-year-old will hear the evidence prosecutors
have against him during a preliminary hearing later
this month.

Collecting money for hurricane survivors turned
dangerous for a Fresno State student this weekend.
Outside Saturday's football game, a Bulldog baseball
player was tackled while he collected donations for
the Red Cross.

According to campus police, two men pushed him to the
ground, and tried to take the money.- But they didn’t
get away with any cash, because the unidentified
athlete tossed his donation jar over a fence.

The baseball player wasn't seriously hurt and went
back to collecting donations at the game. University
police are now investigating.

Fresno County Sheriff’s deputies and state narcotics
agents busted a pot plantation in the hills near
Auberry on Monday.

Crews spent most of the day cutting down some 5,000
marijuana plants in a remote area above Pine Ridge.

But first, they flew over the remote area to pin-point
the location before hiking their way in.

Later, authorities reached their destination; finding
the drugs but not the people who planted them.

Anyone hiking in the Sierra National Forest should
keep an eye out for the signs of other pot operations:
irrigation pipes, excessive trash from a camp site and
well-worn trails in a remote area.

Rangers say not to engage anyone you might suspect of
illegal activities; instead, leave the area and call
for help.

A German thief stole a man's in-car navigation system
and unwittingly auctioned it online back to his
victim, who had police arrest him.

Police in Berlin said the 26-year-old victim spotted
the device on an Internet auction site and quickly
re-acquired what he had reported stolen from his car
some two weeks previously.

He informed police, who went to the thief's house
posing as the buyers and then arrested the
21-year-old.

"I think the thief got a bit of a surprise," said a
Berlin police spokesman, adding the man confessed to
the theft.

The thief began crying immediately...

A monkey, apparently a pet, escaped, then chased a
12-year-old boy into his house and bit him on the
buttocks in the western Malaysian state of Pahang.

The monkey, which was believed to be a pet animal
because there was a chain around its neck, ran up and
down the street in the housing area in Kuantan town as
it appeared just after dusk, scaring people who were
afraid to have their butts bitten.

Hawkins County, TN has pulled the plug on a tanning
bed used by emergency dispatchers. The Hawkins County
911 Board voted that the tanning bed, which employees
bought with their own money, must be removed from the
Central Dispatch center.

The center handles emergency calls for fire and law
enforcement departments.

The employees paid for it, but they cannot use it
while they're on the clock. The employees sit for 12
hours, and they get kind of stiff, so they go in there
after clocking out. They say it helps — the heat on
their back.

Also on the outs is the Thai massage girls who give
good happy endings to stressed 911 Dispatchers.

Jerry,

I had heard a few of these UFO stories on your show
before I had to leave for the summer, but now that I'm
back, I wanted to write you guys and add to the
weirdness.

I lived in a guest house behind my landlord in Visalia
about six years ago. I had just come back from a bible
study reading at a girl friends house. Don't laugh. I
was there because I was all hot for a guy that was
music director of my church. It never worked out.

Anyway, I had popped open a cold Red Stripe set it on
the kitchen table and started the bath. I knew I could
finish the beer before the tub was full because the
pipes were so corroded the water practically dripped
out.

I went back into the kitchen, lights flickered and I
heard a loud ringing in my ear.

I saw something moving in my living room. I walked in
and saw what I've described to others as a pale jack o
lantern stuck on my wall. It was just half way out of
the wall. Like someone hung it there. I walked over to
see if what I was looking at was something a friend
had put there as a gag.

I got close and it quickly stepped back into the wood
paneling and disappeared. I think I must have
screamed. It just walked into the wall and through it.
I began to get dizzy and as I turned to run out, it
stepped back quickly toward me and grabbed my arm.
Another one also moved through the wall and the IKEA
bookshelf next to me. It moved right through my TV set
and grabbed my head.

I fell to the floor.

I opened my eyes and I was getting my teeth worked on.
The dentist was drilling and I looked to my side and
my mommy was sitting reading a Redbook magazine.
Things seemed okay, except my mom had been dead for
about 15 years. This had to be a childhood memory.

I tried to kick myself out of the dental chair and
suddenly I was laying on the floor in my living room
and as I set up Mrs. Miller my landlord was opening
the door and calling for me.

The tub had run over and was pouring into her garage.
It must have been overflowing for quite sometime.

I didn't know what to tell her, she was mad, saw the
beer on the table, saw me on the floor passed out... I
was in a mess.

The beer was warm and I can only guess I was out for
over an hour.

I know what I saw and what happened to me, but Doctors
told me I had developed Frontal Lobe Epilepsy. The
Front Row has done more for me than any doctor I've
seen, just because your Area 69 has let me hear other
peoples encounters and let me know I'm not alone.

Thanks so much, Allison

delicious to pass up.

He's promoting "Corpse Bride," an animated feature
made by his longtime friend, director Tim Burton, yet
his mind is on Jack Sparrow, a character based on
Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards. Depp was
nominated for a best actor Oscar for the role.
