Let’s get to the news… (Play News Music – Clip 03)

MILWAUKEE (AP) -- Milwaukee police were called to investigate an alleged sexual assault and stepped into a crime scene crawling - in some cases literally - with hundreds of reptiles including alligators and snakes.
Police spokeswoman Anne E. Schwartz says the reptiles and rodents were found in a home and inside a building doubling as a storage facility and residence. The initial discovery was made Wednesday, and officers remained at the scene Thursday.
Lt. Paul Felician told WTMJ-TV in Milwaukee at least five anaconda snakes 20 to 30 feet long were found, along with spiders and a chicken.
Some animals were stored in containers; others roamed.
Officials from nearby zoos, an animal control unit and other agencies helped police. A 50-year-old woman was arrested and could be charged.








CLEVELAND (AP) -- A corpse was taken for a ride in Cleveland, then dumped by thieves who stole a crematory's hearse and abandoned it with a note telling police where to find the body.
Police on Wednesday found the woman's body, in a bag and on a gurney, at the intersection specified in the note.
Computer equipment also was taken from the crematory during Wednesday's break-in. Sgt. Sammy Morris says police are investigating whether the hearse was stolen to haul the gear away. No arrests have been made.
Funeral director Jim Murphy says the corpse was unharmed. It was scheduled to be cremated Wednesday.
The Greenfield Crematory has apologized to the family. It says it was not unusual for the body to have been left in its vehicle, which was locked inside the building.

PORT ANGELES, Wash. (AP) -- A man in Washington state who branded his children like cattle has been acquitted of second-degree assault charges.
A jury in Port Angeles deadlocked Thursday on two lesser charges of fourth-degree assault, and a judge declared a mistrial on those counts.
The two teenage sons of 39-year-old Mark J. Seamands testified that they had wanted to be branded.
The Sequim (SKWIM') man was branded himself. He testified he wanted to bring the family closer together while he was going through a divorce. Seamands' ex-wife said she was horrified when she saw the scars.
Seamands' 18-year-old daughter also was branded, but the dad wasn't charged with assaulting her because she was old enough to give consent.
The children were branded with the letters "SK," which stands for "Seamands' kids."
