Cops followed the money – pennies – in a robbery case.

A trail of pennies led them from a private club in Verona, Pa., to a nearby home, where the cops found the claw hammer and sledgehammer used to smash open cash registers and a vending machine at the club.

Two suspects have been charged with burglary, theft and criminal mischief.

They’re giving a whole new meaning to the term prisoners of love.

Melissa Haycraft, an inmate at an Owensboro, Ky., lockup, got pregnant while jailed there, after crawling through ductwork for trysts with fellow prisoner John Benson.

Haycraft has since been transferred to an all-female prison.

The scales of justice tipped in favor of these two fishnappers.

Former frat brothers Casey Loop and Matthew Cox netted a good deal when they were sentenced to community service instead of jail for stealing and eating a jumbo goldfish at the University of California at Santa Cruz.

The men were drunk when they snatched Goldie from a university-owned pond and fried and fed it to pledges.

She wishes she could just wipe away her legal mess.

Carol Hall, 56, of Waterbury, Conn., has been charged with making a false report about poisoned toilet paper.

Hall called cops claiming the toilet paper at Superior Court had been contaminated with poison. Officials checked, but found the paper was fine.

Here’s a happy fish story.

Eleven rescuers battled for three hours to save a goldfish in Britain.

The rescuers jumped into action after a neighbor spotted William the goldfish being tossed down the sewer.

William is doing swimmingly after being given a new home.
