An elderly couple told police in the English town of Bedford they unknowingly purchased a cannabis plant at a car boot sale, believing it to be a generic green shrub.

Looks like Bill and Hillary Clinton are ditching Chappaqua for a yurt in Mongolia. Just kidding! They're probably moving to this intense 7,000 square-foot house in the Westchester town of Bedford Hills. It's got a stable and everything!

Moammar Khadafy's tent in Donald Trump's backyard was dismantled this afternoon. As for how much Trump really knew about who had rented his Bedford property—or whether he was truly duped by the Libyan leader's reps—that remains an open question. In what may be a historic first for the Trumpster, he's turning down all interview requests for the time being. Savor the moment. [AP, previously]

"Donald Trump may have inadvertently rented property in a ritzy New York suburb to loathed Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, who has spent weeks trying to find a place to pitch his trademark tent while in town for the United Nations General Assembly meeting," ABC News now reports, confirming a previous account that the Libyan leader was planning to spend the week in Bedford. Team Trump claims it rented the property to a bunch of Middle Eastern dudes, but had no idea they had any connection to the Libyan leader. Says a Trump rep: "We have business partners and associates all over the world. The property was leased on a short-term basis to Middle Eastern partners who may or may not have a relationship to Mr. Gaddafi. We are looking into the matter now." Meanwhile, work constructing the tent has been halted by town officials. That's what they're hoping anyway: "Attorney Joel Sachs said officials found workers constructing the tent but could not communicate with them because they didn't speak English. He said they gave the order to stop the work to the property's caretaker." [ABC News, HuffPo]

As the psychics at Page Six predicted yesterday, Martha Stewart spent her 64th birthday getting smacked with another three weeks in home confinement. Having spent the past five months serving out the remainder of her sentence from the dungeons of her Bedford, N.Y., uber-farm, Stewart became inexplicably naughty and attended an illicit yoga class in Bedford Hills, then furtively stopped by a neighboring bookstore. When the Post published a picture of Martha driving a cart to engage in these questionable activities, federal probation officials saw cause for additional punishment — sadly, she would have otherwise been free as of next Wednesday.

Poor Martha Stewart: As if it weren't bad enough that she served hard time, has been under house arrest on her suburban farm, and is currently being subjected to her own Apprentice spin-off, now the city of Bedford apparently hates her, too.
