Re: Tomball: April Fool prank backfires

Another one in Cleveland, Ohio: A woman who worked in city hall called her boyfriend on April 1 and told him there was a criminal shooter in the building. He called 911.

There was no shooter. Police arrested her and held her until today. They do not plan to charge her.

Re: Tomball: April Fool prank backfires

Molly's Pub is a Houston-area chain. I'd be surprised if there were a real woman named Molly involved, or even a real Irishman. ;-)

Re: Tomball: April Fool prank backfires

Mothers' Day might be a little awkward, too.

Tomball: April Fool prank backfires

At Molly's Pub in Tomball (NW Houston suburb) Friday a worker sent a text message to the manager saying that she was being robbed. The manager called the police, who showed up in force. The police suspected a male customer of being the (non-existent) robber and took him into custody.

When the dust settled, the manager fired the worker who sent the bogus text message, who was the manager's mother. The good news for the woman is that she will not be charged with an offense.
