Josh Saves the Day

You might not know this, but Josh is a hero. That is, at least, to a group of local boy scouts who have their badges back.

Thanks to his Light-Sleeping Skills, Josh woke up on Wednesday morning at 2am to hear the strange noise of two men sorting thru a dumpster across the street (at the church). When he saw them going thru the trash and inspecting items with a flashlight he called the police dispatch, thinking perhaps they were identity thieves.

A cop-car arrived a few minutes after the men had left, but not after they had passed the men on the road. The cops noticed a boy scout badge stuck to one of the men's feet and asked him to take them to the dumpster. That's where they found a box of missing badges (reported last week). The cops then proceeded to take the badges back to their rightful owner (at 3am!).

Sounds like someone deserves an honorary scout badge to me ...
