QUIRKY WORLD ... Father goes a step too far with fake intruder ‘test’

USA: A suburban Cleveland man had a friend pose as a threatening ex-convict during a test to see whether his teenagers would let a stranger into their home, prompting them to flee and call 911, police said.

A prosecutor will consider potential child-endangering charges against the adults.

Westlake police said the father “refused to acknowledge the emotional upset he had caused” and described his 14- and 16-year-old sons’ actions as an “epic fail”.
