That's The Way The Cookie Crumbleys

James and Jennifer Crumbley, the parents of the teen charged in the Oxford High School shooting , were located and arrested early Saturday in Detroit after a citizen saw their vehicle and called police. "Yes, they are both in custody and will be on the way to the Oakland County Jail soon," said Oakland County Undersheriff Mike McCabe. "Kudos to Detroit PD and all the other agencies that assisted." Police arrived at the scene, in the area of the 1100 block of Bellevue near E. Lafayette, about 10 p.m. or 10:30 p.m., Detroit Police Chief James White told reporters about 3 a.m. Saturday morning.

Guess Where The COVID Waste Has Been Going

  During the COVID-19 pandemic, more than 28,000 tons (25,000 metric tons) of pandemic-related plastic waste, such as masks and gloves, have ended up in the ocean, according to a new study.  That's more than 2,000 double-decker buses  worth of waste,  The Guardian reported . And within a few years, a portion of those plastic gloves and packaging materials from pandemic purchases could be swirling around the North Pole. The analysis found that 193 countries produced about 9.2 million tons (8.4 million metric tons) of pandemic-associated plastic waste from the start of the pandemic to mid-August 2021, according to The Guardian.  The majority of the plastic — about 87.4% — was used by hospitals, while 7.6% was used by individuals. Packaging and test kits accounted for about 4.7% and 0.3% of the waste, respectively, the authors reported in a recent study, published online on Nov. 8 in the journal  Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences .
