A Florida woman with a very unusual name was arrested in Boynton Beach on December 13, 2009. Her name is Merry Christmas, but her heart did not seem to be filled with joy when police entered her neighborhood. While officers were questioning a woman on the street, Christmas exited her house and began yelling so loudly that officers had to stop. After repeatedly ignoring warnings to be quiet and return to her home she was arrested on obstruction of justice charges. Christmas, who was born on December 28th, was released with a notice to appear in court.

Golfer Tiger Woods was injured in a car accident outside his home around 2:30am on Friday, November 27, 2009. Immediately after leaving his house, his Cadillac SUV hit a fire hydrant and tree and when police arrived, they found Woods in and out of consciousness in the street with his wife Elin. Initial reports were that Elin (who was not in the vehicle with him) used a golf club to smash the rear window and extricate Woods. However, rumors are now circulating that there may be more to the story. One rumor states that Woods was recently seen in Australia with another woman and questions surround why Woods was leaving home at such an odd hour. Woods has refused to meet with Police investigators and simply issued a statement stating that the rumors are false and requests privacy.

Town Council members approved the firing claiming they wanted to avoid negative attention if word got out. Their plan backfired as the town has now been flooded with media inquiries and the story has swept the nation, even appearing in Alaskan news articles. Howard Simon, president of the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida commented, “This might go down as one of the top 10 poor judgments by public officials in Florida history.”

While participating in a pro-am golf tournament in Florida, actor Bill Murray’s tee shot hit a spectator. The shot was so far off that it flew across a street and hit Gail DiMaggio standing in her front yard, knocking her down. At first Murray did not know he had hit, let alone injured, a person. Paramedics attended to Ms. DiMaggio and she was taken to a hospital. Murray is an avid golfer and starred in the classic golf comedy film Caddyshack.
