     Intent on keeping her purse, the woman stood her ground against Gallo. As the pair struggled over the purse, the woman went as far as punching the would be purse snatcher.

     Eventually Gallo had enough and let go of the purse and began to run off. Yet, he wasn't content to part with out loosing one final offence at the woman. Gallo loosened a sweatshirt that had been bound around his waist, and exposed his genitals to the woman. Gallo then raised both his middle fingers and cursed at the woman before he escaped.

Gallo was charged with attempted robbery by sudden snatching and lewd and lascivious exhibition for this incident, and also faces charges for soliciting in public related to a different incident. 

     Jacksonville man, 89, arrested after son-in-law shot in TV dispute, dare

     An 89-year-old Jacksonville man, Kenon Lee Ferguson faces charges of aggravated battery after a dispute with his 59-year-old son-in-law, Joel Edward Perry, over watching television. Ferguson reportedly told his son-in-law that “you don't own anything in this house,” to which Perry allegedly replied, "do something about it".

     Apparently deciding to do just that, Ferguson went to his bedroom and retrieved his .38 caliber pistol. After this, the fight between Ferguson and Perry escalated. At some point Ferguson fired off a round, hitting Perry in the leg. Officers arrived around 7:30 p.m., and took Ferguson into custody. 

     Perry and his wife, Ferguson's daughter, were living at the residence when the incident occurred. However, records show that the the house is in Ferguson's name.
