>> see what happens when firefighter tries to get her down. it's looking like your avera average -- >> oh, my god. >> something seems so wrong about throwing somebody off a bridge. >> oh, my god. we begin with criminal activity all caught on camera. and believe it or not, these guys recorded the action themselves. this is in columbus, ohio. two teens broke into a couple's home. this is everything police said they did. >> you can see them using the wooden end of a rifle to smash a flat-screen tv. smashed the couples wedding photo. they even steal the couple's son's coins, they even urinated on the dog bed in the home. this is one of the chilling parts of the video, they left a note. >> dear whomever this may
3:02 pm
concern, but you have been robbed. >> this video they shot was with the couple's camera which they then stole. the cops recovered the camera, they showed this video to the couple and the couple recognized one of the teens as a person who used to live in their neighborhood. >> i was going to say. they took extra time to smash personal belongings. it felt more like a personal attack. >> did i hear them laughing, too? >> you can hear them howling with laughter. they caused $8,000 worth of damage and they ended up stealing the cople's suv bu th h their car, so an hour later they located the vehicle. when the photeens came back fore car, they were arrested and charged. we got this from ten tv. they kept the couple's identity
3:03 pm
sealed, but this is what they had to say -- >> i want them punished. >> a 11-year-old friend and a 12-year-old falls into the water. the 12-year-old gets out okay. but this leads to a rescue. this is a dramatic water rescue performed by the coast guard. here's what happens before the coast guard got there. the 11-year-old was carried by a riptide. his dad followed him out, then a female good samaritan followed him in. so this parks and recs officer jumped in to help them out. >> so two people went into the water to try to help the original little boy swept under by the current. >> mm-hmm. it was just officer murphy with his safety board. and those people were clinging to it. it took an hour for the coast guard to get them all on a boat and fly them out. the 11-year-old was airlifted to an oakland children's hospital. the rest of them were taken by

ambulance and treated for hypothermia. >> do you know how far out they got pulled? >> they were 50 yards from the beach, but when officer murphy got there, he carried them into deeper water. >> were there any warning signs about dangerous conditions? >> yes, there were warning signs posted, but kids 11 and 12 don't pay attention to them like grown-ups do. >> st. patrick's day has passed us, but videos keep rolling in. like this one from chicago. right off the bat we see a confrontation between a chicago police officer and a person out there partying in the street. at first glance you notice the police officer is pretty big. the person he is fighting with is rather small. the cop looks to the camera, notices he is being recorded, and this person is really, really mouthing off to this cop. some people are saying he was
3:05 pm
i'll "f" you up which you can't say to a cup. and flips the cop the bird. the person's female friend is trying to restrain this individual. watc watch. >> whoa. >> yep. finally the cop says i think you've said enough. and sort of puts this person in a choke hold, gets him over to a sidewalk, slaps the cuffs on him and takes him in. what did you notice about what happened when the pop cut the cuffs on? >> everything kind of supports the officer. >> we are all in agreement. this guy was mouthing off. this cop had to do what he had to do. a lot of commenters on youtube are saying the exact same thing. a few said this wasn't a man at all, this was a female in this confrontation. and also that this person is a u.s. marine. does that change anything for you guys? >> no. >> i'm sorry, you can't talk lip
3:06 pm
like that to a police officer. >> even people in the crowd thought it was a male, because you hear people say wow, he's cuffing him and taking him in. whether it's a male or a female, this person should not mouth off to a police officer and i don't blame the officer for taking this person in. >> next time you leave your house, remember to tell your pet, your dog, to stay inside and not get on the ledge, that's what the owners of 4-year-old maggie forgot to do. maggie is a wire fox terrier. and when her owners were away, she decided that she was going go for a little walk on the ledge. >> i see her. yeah. look at that. >> sometimes a dog has to go outside. >> maybe she needed fresh air, but she is on the ledge that is four stories up and five inches wide. >> oh. >> kind of a dangerous little walk for her. >> it's cat territory. >> this happened in chicago. the chicago fire department got a call. they were just around the corner, so they got there very

>> yeah. >> this girl is a paraplegic. you can see she's in a wheelchair. she called this the first and definitely not the last time she'll go bungee jumping. >> you know what is scary? you don't have the ability to stand on the ledge and decide you don't want to do it. you're at the willingness of the other people going -- she's brave, don't get me wrong. but the image of these guys tossing her off this bridge, it's terrifying, almost comical, but scary. you have to hand it to her. >> did you hear the glee in her scream? it's like a whee! instead of a blood-curdling scream. >> this stunt was put on by nine lives adventures, they help people with accessibility challenges like this girl realize the obstacles they face so they can "shatter them." this is something she wanted to go out and do.
