An extremely enjoyable party was had by Calum Ward in Barnstaple bus station last November, when he was caught on CCTV setting fire to some peanuts, punching the peanuts, then appearing to try to have sex with a bus. And yes, there were some drugs in his pocket.
According to local police, 25-year-old Ward was spotted in “relatively high spirits” in the area beforehand. CCTV footage later captured him setting fire to a packet of peanuts in a phone box before, for some inexplicable reason, he started punching the poor burning nuts.
After staggering about and bothering the locals for a while, Ward then lay down in front of an ambulance, with an attending police officer claiming in his notes that: “It looks as though he is attempting to make love to the front of the ambulance”, which was parked in a bus station at the time.
Cannabis and amphetamine were found in his pockets. This has been a public service broadcast on behalf of Don’t Mix Cannabis And Amphetamines. [This is Devon]

ROFLMAO
If it wasn’t for the drugs found, I would have said it was normal behaviour from the Royal Marines camp a mile up the road.
this made my day. in my life, i have never heard of any one who has set a bag of peanuts on fire, punched a bag of peanuts while on fire or made love to a bus and an ambulance.
So much for viagra!
I grew up near there. Explains a lot
Are you claiming responsibility?
Valid point
I’m not there *now*!
Those bloody peanuts though. Grrr they get me cross…
I grew up near there too….
Wonder if his organ got stuck up in the exhaust pipe or the exhaust pipe got stuck up where sun don’t shine. Either way, what drug was it?
I think this is my favourite news story ever.
