Afghanistan? Nah. Pakistan? No. Ocean City, Maryland? Bingo!
The bizarre story began Monday, when a man walked up to some Ocean City cops and said he was Osama bin Laden.
He was captured and dropped off at the local nut house. The shrinks set him loose Wednesday morning. “Osama” again drew the attention of police and then hopped in a car and sped away. They chased him, as cops will do, until he plowed into three cars at an intersection.
After the crash, “Osama” proved he was serious about terrorism by frantically waving a blender at police.
The Daily Times says “Osama” is actually a 26-year-old West Virginia hillbilly named Tena Bergeno.
After taking the blender away from Bergeno, he was arrested and charged with fleeing and eluding, hit and run, second-degree assault and minor traffic charges.
Now he’s in the hospital “undergoing psychiatric evaluation.”
We don’t know what to believe anymore.
