David McCallum found fame in the 1960s before later playing a pathologist on NCIS for 20 years.

A serial dine and dasher who faked having heart attacks to avoid paying the bill has finally been caught. Aidas J, 50, who is of Lithuanian nationality and lives in Alicante scammed 20 eateries in the area by refusing to pay the bill. He dramatically clutched his chest and fell to the floor as if he was having a heart attack, say several reports. Putting on a stellar performance, Aidas masqueraded as a Russian tourist and mixed together multiple languages. He would order multiple items on the menu before refusing to pay, revealed Spanish newspaper El País. The conman who dressed well in designer clothes always started with a Russian Salad, washed down with multiple glasses of whiskey, followed by a hearty main of entrecote or lobster, followed by more whisky for desert. The twentieth time Aidas tried his luck in a year caught the attention of the police, when the manager of Buen Comer restaurant Moisés Doménech noticed him trying to flee. Mr Doménech told the Sun when he attempted to spree, he fell to the floor. She told the newspaper: “It was very theatrical, he pretended to faint and slumped himself down on the floor.” The offender ordered two whiskeys and seafood paella at El Buen Corner, receiving a bill for 34.85 Euros. He even sought medical attention for his ‘heart problems’ and was even admitted to hospital, report El País. Aidas has only now been arrested after the last time he attempted to swerve the bill as he ignored court summons and fines, say the paper. The spokesperson for Alicante National Police told Insider: "He was arrested multiple times in the city of Alicante. The modus operandi was the same," she said. After a long string of offences, the conman has been jailed for 42 days but his crimes are considered minor as each bill was between £13 and £60.

A newly released 911 call reveals the chilling details of the incident that led to Youtube influencer Ruby Franke’s arrest, when her 12-year-old child sought food and water from a neighbor. Court documents previously showed that Ms Franke’s child, who was reportedly also in the care of her business partner Jodi Hildebrandt, “climbed out of the window of an Ivins residence belonging to Jodi Hildebrandt and ran to a neighbor’s home” on 30 August. The child reportedly showed up at the neighbor’s home with “duct tape” covering his ankles and wrists as the he begged for food and water. Alarmed, the neighbor called the police. Now, the neighbor’s side of the story is revealed. “I just had a 12-year-old boy show up here at my front door asking for help,” the neighbor says, according to a recording of the call obtained by ABC. “And he’s said he had just come from a neighbor’s house and we know there’s been problems at this neighbor’s house,” the person said of Ms Franke’s home. The neighbor continued, “He is emaciated. He’s got tape around his legs. He’s hungry and he’s thirsty.” “He has duct tape around each ankle. There’s sores around them. He has them around his wrists as well,” the neighbor told 911. “This kid has obviously... he’s been detained. He’s obviously covered in wounds.” Following the call, officials determined the 12-year-old to be severely malnourished, according to the probable cause statement, and was transferred to a nearby hospital. The child was placed on medical hold after it was discovered that he was also suffering from “deep lacerations” due to “being tied up with rope,” arrest records said. Police then searched Ms Franke’s house, where they found a 10-year-old girl who was also allegedly malnourished and suffering from wounds. This child was also taken to the hospital. Ms Franke faces six felony child abuse charges. Four of her children wound up in the custody of the Utah Division of Child and Family Services, KUTVreported.
