IN ADRIEL ROQUE'S FIVE YEARS OF MANAGING THE UNIVERSAL SUPERMARKET OFF OLD U.S. 41 IN BONITA SPRINGS.
ADRIEL ROQUE, STORE MANAGER: reporter: where does this one rank on the bizarre list.it's pretty high up there
HE'S HAD PEOPLE STEAL FROM HIM BEFORE.
ADRIEL ROQUE, STORE MANAGER: I've seen people put packages of beer and single cans in their pockets I've seen people try to hide trays of meat
BUT HE'S NEVER HAD SOMEONE TRY TO MAKE OFF WITH ITEMS PRICED AT LESS THAN A DOLLAR EACH.
picked up three burritos actually placed them in his pockets and tried to walk out
THAT MAN HE SAW.
63 YEAR OLD WILLIAM ROSS.
AND THE THREE BURRITOS DEPUTIES SAY HE STUFFED IN HIS POCKETS.
ADDED UP TO A WHOPPING TWO DOLLARS AND 37 CENTS.
ADRIEL ROQUE, STORE MANAGER: I was shocked by the fact that he was willing to risk his freedom for three burritos
BUT THIS WASN'T ROSS' FIRST TIME TRYING TO CHEAT THE STORE.
THE MANAGER SAYS HE'S CAUGHT HIM TWICE BEFORE STEALING MEAT AND FRUIT.
WHICH IS WHY THIS TIME ADRIEL CALLED THE COPS.
SO INSTEAD OF JUST PAYING THE 2.37 FOR THE FROZEN BURRITOS.
ROSS NOW HAS A ONE THOUSAND DOLLAR BAIL ON HIS HANDS.
ADRIEL ROQUE, STORE MANAGER: I actually wondered whether it would be better to let him go because in jail it would cost more in taxes as well
BUT PERHAPS THE MOST IRONIC PART IN THIS STORY OF CHEAP THRILLS.
IS THE SUPERMARKET'S WILLINGNESS TO HELP THOSE LIKE ROSS WHO ARE GOING THROUGH TOUGH TIMES.
ADRIEL ROQUE, STORE MANAGER: they have told me I'm out of job and hungry can you help and many times I've taken them to the deli and given them a plate of food
IT'S A MUCH CHEAPER AND LESS TROUBLESOME OPTION ROSS MAY CONSIDER THE NEXT TIME HE GETS THE MUNCHIES.

A LASER.
IT'S SHEDDING LIGHT--ON PAINFUL CONDITIONS IN PETS.
THE LIGHT SHOOTING ENERGY INTO THE BODY'S CELLS--ALLOWING PETS TO HEAL 3 TIMES FASTER.
25:36 it takes away the inflammation and that takes away the pain 25:38
THE "K LASER" FIGHTS INFLAMMATION, SOOTHES AFTER SURGERY--AND HELPS RELAX DOGS --LIKE TRIXIE.
17:37:18 she is paralyzed on her back legs so she can only walk on her front legs
TRIXIE'S ISN'T CAMERA SHY.
HER UNUSUAL CONDITION--HAS LANDED HER ON NBC2 NEWS BEFORE.
SHE WAS A STRAY FOUND IN CAPE CORAL.
ADOPTED BY VETERINARIAN ELEANOR COOK.
37:24 I have used the laser to sooth her back help her elbows and front legs because all of her weight is carried is in the front end which places a lot of stress 37:37
37:42 it increases circulation it helps to stimulate the body's own anti inflammatories so after the treatment she moves more freely walks around more peppy if you can imagine it on two front legs 37:58
THE THERAPY---DRUG AND SURGERY FREE.
23:24 we've had cases where we injected anti inflammatory pills injections and it did not work but the laser did work 23:33

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.
IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.
A FEW MORE CLOUDS FRIDAY
Thursday turned out to be a gorgeous day with a decent medley of sun and clouds. As we near the week's end, those clouds will grow in number.
High pressure is strengthening over the Carolinas, and that's causing our winds to pick up. Those brisk winds are able to bring clouds from the Atlantic into southwest Florida. That's what we saw on Thursday, and we'll see it for another day on Friday. However, there's an area of energy anchored just off the Texas coastline. That area will sail eastward and will help give us even more clouds to end the week.
So we have clouds coming from both the east and the west, and well, that makes for a mostly cloudy Friday. That's what we're forecasting along with lows in the upper 50s bouncing back to the low 80s come the afternoon.
Those clouds are short lived, and they will quickly erode for your weekend. Partly cloudy skies will hover over the area for Saturday and Sunday. Looks like a fabulous couple of days! We'll see more of the same Monday and Tuesday, too.
Another cold front will approach Wednesday into Thursday of next week. I expect it to fade away as it approaches, and that means our weather will remain quiet.
Temperatures will continue to be in the upper 50s around daybreak, and lower 80s can be expected for daytime highs.
Boaters, use caution when hitting the waters. Winds are getting stronger, and by this time tomorrow they'll be coming from the NE around 15.

U-S SECRETARY OF STATE, HILLARY CLINTON, AGREES.
it places further obstacles in the path to peace. we have been clear that only through direct negotiations between the parties can the israelis and palestinians achieve the peace they both deserve.
