   The summary write-ups, as always, come from Anna's News Clippings:   
      
   After praising artificial-intelligence-based tool Draft One for saving   
   him 6-8 hours of report-drafting time per week, Police Sergeant Rick   
   Keel stated that Heber City, Utah, law enforcement has also 'learned   
   the importance of correcting [...] AI-generated reports' created by   
   combining large language models with image analysis.  This discovery   
   came about after the department had to explain an official statement   
   that a cop had transformed into a frog: 'The body cam software and the   
   AI report writing software picked up on the [audio from a] movie that   
   was playing in the background', Disney's /The Princess and the Frog/.   
     The department has not stated whether it plans to start indicating   
   which parts of its reports come from AI vs. officers.  It did state   
   that Draft One performs better than the tool it had tried earlier.   
      
        Don't fear ~ Draft One!   
      
      
   On Christmas, Cody Wayne Adams was minding his own business in the   
   back yard of his Comanche, Oklahoma, home when an elderly woman a few   
   blocks away said 'ouch' before passing away mid-conversation.  The two   
   events were connected: Adams, 33, had been practising with his   
   gift-to-self Glock .45 handgun, two magazines of ammunition, and a Red   
   Bull can, and a bullet entered the old lady's chest as she was sitting   
   on a porch half a kilometre away with a baby in her lap.   
     The police made the connection after ascertaining that all but one   
   residence within firing range of the shooting had 'suitable shooting   
   backstops or firing locations'.  Adams, who began to cry when a deputy   
   informed him of the link, faces a charge of first-degree   
   manslaughter.

   At the payment window of the Grand Island, Nebraska, McDonald's   
   drive-through, local man Michael Dickinson hadn't pulled close enough   
   to pay easily.  He was, however, near enough that stretching through   
   his car window left him pinned between the fast-food outlet and his   
   door frame in what Police Division Chief Dean Elliot later termed a   
   freak accident.  A McDonald's employee who tried to free Dickinson via   
   the passenger door suffered injuries and proved unable to prevent the   
   69-year-old's fatal squishing.   
      
        Kind mechanics, oil ~ Michael Dickinson!
