Judi Spiers said sorry after the ‘distasteful’ gaffe on her BBC Radio Devon morning show.

She made the comment while discussing a book about Casper the cat, a pet which became famous after regularly making a 17km (11-mile) bus trip from his home in Plymouth.

During her show the veteran presenter said of the book: '10,500 copies have been sold, and the book has been translated into six different languages - Dutch, German, Portuguese, Italian and two dialects of Chinese. I don't know whether they'll enjoy that; don't they eat cats?'

The slip-up was quickly noticed and 10 minutes later she returned to the air, saying: ‘I would like to apologise if you found the comment distasteful. Obviously, I did not mean to offend.’

Authorities in Calvert Co. warn residents about emu on loose

HUNTINGTOWN — Authorities say an emu is on the loose in Southern Maryland.

The Calvert County Sheriff's Office Animal Control Unit said the bird has been spotted in the Huntingtown area. Authorities have been fielding calls about the bird since November, when it was spotted in Dunkirk.

The owner of the emu has not been identified.

Emus can stand up more than 6 feet tall and run at up to 30 miles per hour. Authorities said residents should not approach the bird because it uses its legs to defend itself, and it has knife-like toenails.

HUNTINGTOWN, Md. - A bizarre story about an emu running loose in Calvert County has a sad ending.
A farmer shot and killed the emu after finding the bird off Chaneyville Road in the northern part of the county on Thursday.

"The farmer believed this animal was a threat to his safety and to the safety of his own animals, so he shot and killed the animal," Calvert County Sheriff's Office Lt. Dave McDowell says.

The farmer will not face charges since he did not violate any environmental or wild animal gaming laws, McDowell says.

It's still unknown where the emu came from and how it ended up loose in the county.

"We really don't know. It's a mystery," McDowell says.

Police had been fielding calls about the bird since November, when it was spotted in Dunkirk.

Police has warned people against approaching the bird because emus use their knife-like toenails and powerful legs to defend themselves.

An emu is similar to an ostrich, standing over six feet tall and having the ability to run at speeds up to 30 mph.

was gonna say, how long before someone shoots it

A 19-year-old Hawaii woman who served as the model for the bare-breasted mermaids in the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie got more exposure than she bargained for when a national gossip magazine linked her with film star Johnny Depp.

Baltimore police are seeking a man who they say dressed as a woman and pretended to be an officer.

Detective Jeremy Silbert, a police spokesman, said a man driving a blue or green Oldsmobile Alero with a blue light on the dash pulled over a female driver just after 5 p.m. Sunday in North Baltimore and asked for her identification.

She handed it to him and he left with it. Police said the woman was not harmed.

The suspect is described as white, in his 40s, 5 feet 8 inches tall, with blue eyes and a thin build. He was last seen wearing a shoulder-length black wig, a dark jacket with a brown patch on the shoulder and knee-high boots with heels.

The man also had an identification card hanging from a lanyard with the words "Baltimore Police" on it, and Silbert said he had on dark makeup and "a lot of wrinkles."

that headline got a guffaw outta me

The Trentonian (NJ) once ran a cover about a 'murdered' pet goose with the headline (of course) "Murder Most Fowl." I mean this was the full cover, NY Post style.

800 block Key Hwy., Monday, Jan. 10, 9:45 a.m.: Two men stole two bronze sculptures from the front of the American Visionary Art Museum. Witnesses chased them, and the suspects dropped the sculptures and ran.
