Cops wearing ‘Marvel’ costumes bust drug gang

 Real live crime fighting super heroes do exist. Just maybe not with all the super powers.
On Halloween four Peruvian officers disguised as marvel super heroes made a huge drug bust.
Spider-Man, Captain America, Thor and Black Widow were undercover and blended in with all the trick or treaters. Meanwhile they were all  working on their mission, an operation they called Marvel.
The superheroes patrolled one of the most dangerous areas in Peru. Once the house the were looking for was located, they kicked in the door in their costumes.

The suspects reportedly thought it was a prank until other officers in costumes and guns also came in to the house.
Three men and one woman were arrested in the raid, where cops successfully seized 3,250 small packages of basic cocaine paste; a crude extract of the coca leaf; and 287 bags of cocaine along with 127 bags of marijuana.

What to expect from the Federal Reserve meeting

There is no mystery about that we are experiencing inflation in this country.  And the U.S. economy might be in for more.
In a battle to bring down the inflation that is plaguing the US economy. The Federal Reserve is expected to make a fourth straight rate hike of three-quarters of a percentage point.
The move is a historic one as the central bank’s benchmark lending rate from 3.75% to 4% would be the highest the fed funds rate has been since January 2008.
Reported to be the Fed’s toughest policy move since the 1980’s. One that will likely increase economic difficulties for millions of American businesses and households by pushing up the cost of borrowing even further.
Federal Reserve Chairman said, last month that no one knows if the rate hikes will cause a recession, or how deep that recession might be.
Be sure to start saving those coins.
