Interesting News Day.

"The U.S. Secret Service investigated a report over the weekend that a Colorado couple -- including a woman involved in a topless-gardening dispute three years ago -- made threats against President Barack Obama while eating in an Ohio restaurant.

Police in Marblehead, Ohio, detained Robert Dale Pierce and Catharine Marie Pierce of Boulder, Colo., on Saturday after receiving a call that Robert Pierce had said he was going to "kill Obama and take him down," according to a police report.

Catharine Pierce is known in Boulder for gardening topless outside her home. Boulder Housing Partners, which owns the home, threatened to evict the Pierces in 2010, but backed off after the Boulder City Council declined to make it a crime to be topless outdoors.

The police report said dispatchers received a call from Avery's Restaurant regarding a man and a woman who were behaving in an "unstable" way and who said they were going to Washington, D.C., to "set some things straight.

Robert Pierce told officers that he is the illegitimate son of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, and, according to the police report, he had documents in the car that appeared to support that claim."


Only in America.
