Caller Threatens to Bomb and Burn House and Kill Man's Family ...

A man who recently moved to Snellville after being?scammed out of $20,000 in New York because he supposedly won multiple sweepstakes?told police the man who tricked him keeps calling for more cash. And that?s not all. The man threatened to ?bomb and burn your house and kill your family,? according to the police report, if he doesn't pay up. A Snellville PD officer was at the victim?s home when the suspect called again and heard similar threats. The officer grabbed the phone, identified himself as a policeman and told the suspect not to call again. The suspect, who was described as having a Middle Eastern accent, said he?ll ?do as he pleases because the law can't touch him,? according to the police report.

In other strange crime news:

• In these economic times, who doesn?t dream of hearing, ?You?ve won the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes?? A Stone Mountain-area woman heard those words, but there was a catch. She was told by a male phone-caller that a camera crew was on its way with the check, and all she needed to do to prepare for the big moment was to purchase $200 in prepaid cards to cover taxes and other costs. She obliged, and was called later by the man asking for more money. The camera crew never arrived.?
• Police said a would-be burglar was unsuccessful in entering a vacant business in the Buford area. But the perp left some things behind ? beer cans and ?large pile of human feces? near the back door, according to the police report.?
• When Lilburn Police located the father of a toddler who was found wandering a shopping-center parking lot,?he blamed it on his 9-year-old daughter. The 2-year-old, wearing a diaper and a Spider-Man T-shirt, apparently had wandered away from his home behind the shopping center. The child was found by a ?Good Samaritan? woman, who took the child into a business to get warm, then called the police. When the cops arrived at the home the front door was open, and the father said he didn?t know the child had left. The 9-year-old, he said, was supposed to be watching him.?
• There?s been?a string of beer thefts?from the?Publix?on Gaines School Road in Athens, believed to be the work of the same bandit. Six cases of Budweiser and one case of Corona were taken on Nov. 7, nearly two weeks after $165 of beer was stolen.
• A Loganville man who was?found intoxicated, injured and lying on the ground?in the Mall of Georgia area couldn?t stand straight up, but he still told a police officer, ?I?m going to @#%! you up.? He had more choice words for another officer. He was taken to the hospital and charged with public drunkenness after being treated and released.
• A Norcross-area couple were told by phone-callers posing as the Norcross PD that they were looking to collect money ?for their client? for debts that don?t exist. According to the police report, the suspects were able to clone the PD?s non-emergency phone number so that it would appear on the victim?s caller ID. The wife said her bank account was previously accessed without authorization, but it?s unclear if it?s related to the fraudulent calls.
• A domestic dispute call resulted in handcuffs and a trip to the Barrow County Detention Center?for a Winder woman, who, not surprisingly, had a strong odor of alcohol on her.

• Burglars made off with 24 frozen smoked hams ? valued at $1,440 ? from a chest freezer at an Athens residence. Also stolen were tools valued at $989, but the ham might be more difficult to replace. That?s a lot of ham!

Police found the energy-drink can and planned to check for fingerprints.
