Florida authorities say they arrested a group of teenagers
who had planned to post a video of a beating on YouTube.
A gang of six girls allegedly pummeled another teenager
while one of them recorded the incident on a video camera,
apparently with plans to place it on YouTube for all to see.
The family of the victim told WFTV-TV, Orlando, the ambush
was part of an alleged scheme to humiliate their daughter and
cause her physical harm.
The Polk County Sheriff's Department said the six attackers
plus two other teens who acted as lookout face charges of
kidnapping, false imprisonment and battery.
What are your thoughts on the growing alarming videos
on YouTube?

Man in wrong apartment not guilty
An Oregon man discovered hiding in a woman's closet has been
found not guilty of charges after he told the court he
entered the wrong apartment. Eric Triton Kincaid, 29, of
Aloha was found not guilty of two counts of first-degree
burglary, one count of attempted first-degree sexual abuse
and one count of invasion of personal privacy, The (Portland)
Oregonian reported Tuesday. Kincaid was discovered hiding
in a 24-year-old woman's bedroom closet in Beaverton after
she get out of the shower, the court heard. The woman said
Kincaid was dressed in women's clothing -- a lacy negligee
with fishnet stockings, a woman's miniskirt, a sheer white
blouse and a long brown wig. The woman screamed and fled
the room. Prosecutor Gina Williamson Skinner said the woman
thought "she was going to be raped." Kincaid fled the
apartment but was arrested several months later when
investigators found his DNA on a methamphetamine pipe he
left behind in the closet. He admitted to being the man in
the apartment, but pleaded not guilty, saying he had thought
the apartment belonged to a woman he had arranged to meet
for sex. "This was a complete accident," public defender
Ethan Levi said his client told him after his arrest.

Wrong photo accompanies suicide story
A manager for a Swedish musician whose picture was
incorrectly identified by a newspaper as a man who committed
suicide said the paper may face legal action. Newspaper
Expressen accompanied a Saturday story about the suicide of
Anders Gothberg, a guitarist in the band Broder Daniels,
with a photo that incorrectly identified former Broder
Daniels drummer Lars Malmros as the deceased guitarist, The
Local reported Tuesday. The paper posted an apology for the
mix-up on its Web site Saturday and a correction ran in the
Sunday edition. "We deeply regret and apologize unreservedly
for this discomfort this mix-up has caused," Expressen editor
Per-Anders Broberg wrote on the Web site. However, Malmros'
manager, Hansi Friberg, said the apology is not enough. She
said she plans to meet with a lawyer to discuss possible
legal avenues for the drummer, who currently plays with the
band Hastpojken. "Obviously, it's been very unpleasant
both for Lars Malmros' family, and for the relatives of
Anders Gothberg," Friberg said.

Family pays thousands for lizard's care
A California man says he and his wife spent $5,000 on
medical bills for his beloved pet lizard that eventually
died due to an enlarged heart. Leonard Scheid of Fountain
Valley said he and his wife Dorothy treated T-Rex, a
Savannah Monitor they purchased in 2002, as a full-blown
member of the family: the lizard was toilet trained, washed
up in the bathroom tub and was even allowed to sleep in bed
with its owners, The Orange County (Calif.) Register
reported Tuesday. Scheid said the powerful bond he quickly
formed with T-Rex left him with no concern about money when
the lizard fell ill in 2003. The family racked up $5,000
in medical costs for three amputation surgeries when the
lizard's tail became deformed, several X-rays, an EKG and
ultrasound on his heart and other procedures. "If they
need the care, then it is our responsibility," Dorothy
Scheid said of the family's pets. T-Rex died last December
and the Scheids have since adopted another Savannah Monitor,
a female named Raptor. "She is more like a pet," Leonard
Scheid said. "He was more like a family member."
