Okay, technically, woman. In short, someone found a dead body while fishing. So, content warning, the story is about that. Though the article doesn't actually have any nasty imagery or verbal details, just a picture of the water with a sunken streetlight pole in it. (...Yes, I'll admit I posted this because of the pun.)
A man was arrested after he allegedly "bashed" a woman's head into a tree stump because she woke him up on her way to the bathroom, according to the Marion County Sheriff's Office. Eric Barr was arrested and charged with domestic aggravated battery after the incident that unfolded Friday at the Silver Springs State Park campsite, according to an arrest affidavit. Deputies on routine patrol in the area were dispatched regarding a verbal disturbance and possible battery. When a deputy arrived, he found the victim "extremely shaken up" with spots of blood on her hands, arms and legs, the report said. She said she was in an argument with Barr, adding that they had been drinking and she "woke him up." She pointed to the back of her head, which was covered in soaking wet blood, deputies said. They immediately requested emergency medical services. Deputies found a log on the ground that had blood on it next to a bottle of liquor.

A 77-year-old Florida man was arrested by federal officials, accused of having thousands of dollars worth of illegal pills used to treat erectile dysfunction. The man lives in the The Villages, a retirement community with homes sprawling through multiple Florida counties, is considered one of the largest retirement communities in the nation. It is the kind of place where a particular type of prescription pill could be in huge demand. According to federal officials, Reginald Kincer allegedly was willing to satisfy that demand with an illegal pill plot. “And they are trying to do the right thing and I’m trying to do the right thing too,” Kincer said during a quick interview with WESH from his home in the Villages. According to a news release from the U.S. Department of Justice, Kincer had more than $1,800 worth of the off-brand pills stashed in his house, pills he allegedly got “without a prescription from a licensed doctor” and planned to “redistribute the drugs in and outside of the state.”
...yeah. This is a thing. Both of these are things.
