We now have the photo snapped by those quick-thinking women we mentioned in Mid-Daily Items on Wednesday.

That’s Andre Smith, the guy who struck up a conversation with the women at a neighborhood bar in Bensalem, Pa., early Sunday morning.

The women snapped pictures of themselves with Smith, but he later was ejected from the bar for allegedly harassing customers.

Then, police say, when the women stopped by a convenience store, Smith robbed them of their pocketbooks.

The women showed police the pictures from the bar, and officers arrested Smith at his apartment. He is being held on $50,000 bail, charged with robbery and theft.

-From Evening Shade, Arkansas comes word today of an interesting find in the wake of tornadoes that tore through that state, causing extensive damage.

Gene Floyd of Sulphur Rock went to check on his camper Sunday at his hunting camp near Evening Shade and said everything looked normal, until he saw something lying on the ground. It was a check, folded in half, showing only a few stains to give away its age.

Floyd said he was surprised when he saw the check drawn on Sept. 1, 1971 from a bank account in Heber Springs — about 50 miles away. The check, for $1.50, was made payable to A.E. Williamson by Mrs. Bruce Murphree. The check bears the note "Gazette for August" and shows it was later cashed.

-The spray-painting of a Brooklyn neighborhood's beloved turtle has stirred up cries of animal cruelty and calls for justice.

Myrtle, as the turtle is known, was recently found roaming the backyards near Roebling Street and Union Avenue in the Williamsburg section sporting a fresh coat of garish orange paint on its shell.

"To me, it's beyond just being an inhumane act. To me, it's an abomination," said one resident and caretaker of the critter, Meredith Chesney, to a television reporter.

Chesney and other residents speculated that the turtle was sprayed as a prank at a nearby construction site where workers use paint of the same color.

Some bloggers who focus on Brooklyn real estate and development have latched onto the turtle's plight as a symbol of unscrupulous construction in the borough.
