Toddler has identity stolen, twice

FORT WAYNE, Ind. - At 22 months old, Jabriona Terry is a little young to have her own phone. But her mother discovered her daughter's name listed in a phone book and soon realized an acquaintance had used the girl's Social Security number to set up the phone service.
It wasn't the first time the girl has been victimized by identity theft, her mother said.
Someone else using her name and Social Security number listed her on his tax return, claiming her as a dependent to get a larger tax refund, she said.
Another reason Terry has not gotten a response is that technically she and her daughter are not victims of fraud because there was no financial loss, Niblick said.
The phone company has suffered financial losses, so unless it files charges, nothing will be done, he said.

Also, please be on the look out for this person:

NEW SMYRNA BEACH, Fla. - Police are on the lookout for the naked tickler. Investigators said they believe one man could be responsible for a series of bizarre break-ins in which a naked man enters victims' rooms while they are sleeping and tries to tickle their feet.

The naked tickler struck again in New Smyrna Beach over the weekend.
Investigators have been working on five similar, unsolved cases since 2001. Most of the victims are women over age 60, said police Cmdr. Wade Kirby.
Kirby said no arrests have yet been made because they don't have a lot to go on.

A group of dogs is taken to a day camp near Bogota in a bus in this photo taken on June 30, 2005. The Transmiperro system (Transport my Dog) is a day camp for dogs, where a colourful bus takes them to a camp in the village of Cajic, 30 km (19 miles) north of Bogot, where the animals are trained and enjoy games and activities. Each pet owner pays between $34 and $106 per month depending on the program the dog is enrolled in. The dogs are returned home, exhausted, at the end of the day
