Nascent Drama

Police officer Tim Pochron's first day on the job went poorly: Less than a half-hour into it, his squad car was wrecked in a crash.
 
Pochron was inside his house at 12:29 a.m. Monday when someone hit his new squad car parked outside, as well as a tree, police said.
 
"Pochron was 29 minutes into the first day of his new job when his parked squad car was struck," Lt. Steve Houck said.
 
The driver tested positive for drugs, was arrested and taken to a hospital, police said.
 
He was supposed to work the morning shift Monday. Instead, he spent the morning filling out paperwork at the police station.
 
The force of the crash bent the rear axle of the squad car.
 
Deputy Chief Jeff White said the car can be repaired, though he's not sure how much it will cost.
 
Pochron "was just heartbroken," White said.

A Tampa bride-to-be who defied doctors' expectations after being told she had a year to live four years ago celebrated another victory Tuesday — she and her fiancee won a $100,000 dream wedding.
 
Courtney Dempsey, 33, and Gary Courtney, 37, were among 40,000 couples who entered US Magazine's wedding contest. The prize includes a dress and honeymoon.
 
"We're beyond thrilled. We're actually in a state of shock right now," Dempsey said.
 
Dempsey was diagnosed with late-stage melanoma four years ago and doctors told her she had less than a year to live. She survived beyond that and began dating Courtney. But soon after, doctors said she needed a double mastectomy.
