This was in the GR Press today and has to be one of the weirdest stories I've read in any paper:
Dad pleads guilty
GRAND RAPIDS — A Cedar
Springs-area man has admitted he made up a story about a man trying to abduct
his 2-year-old son in September. Eugene Rose on Monday pleaded guilty to lying
to a police officer before Kent County Circuit Court Judge James Redford. In a
plea agreement, prosecutors will dismiss a charge that Rose is a habitual
offender. Rose in September told Kent County sheriff’s deputies a man came onto
his 17 Mile Road property, near Division Avenue, and picked up his son. The boy
was playing in the yard. Rose told police he hit the man with a piece of wood
and got his son back. Police later learned that Rose supposedly made up the
story to get out of doorto- door “witnessing” with his wife. Rose will be
sentenced April 1.
