NEW YORK – Brooklyn residents are riled over a performance artist who's been delivering bags of fake crack. The Daily News reported that Nate Hill makes the deliveries dressed in a white tuxedo and a dolphin headpiece. He shows up between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m., like a real drug pusher.
Enrica Serrero said she ordered the "candy crack" at a Williamsburg party last Sunday. Says the 21-year-old: "I'd definitely do it again."
Hill calls it "amusing theater."
Ismael Torres, who's president of a tenant association, is not amused. "I've seen too many cemeteries, too many hospitals, too many funeral parlors," Torres said.
Kevin Wadalavage of Outreach Project, which treats substance abusers, said he is "dumbfounded."

ANCHORAGE, Alaska – A 34-year-old man is in custody after authorities say he gave a teller his account number and showed her his picture ID before robbing an Anchorage bank.
The FBI says Jarell Paul Arnold of Anchorage is being held on federal bank robbery charges.
The FBI alleges Arnold walked into an Alaska USA Federal Credit Union branch Friday and inquired about the balance on his account. The teller asked for his name, account number and ID.
Authorities say he complied, and then handed over a receipt with a note on the back that said he had a gun and demanded money.
The FBI says he got away with about $600. Authorities arrested Arnold on Monday. A message left after business hours Wednesday with Arnold's public defender, Michael Dieni, was not immediately returned.
Court records say Arnold was sentenced to 57 months in prison for bank robbery in 2004.

Something very strange of going on on Saturn. Anby strange I mean stranger than the possibility there's someone there who enjoys Deal or No Deal. Something punched through one of the rings, which Cassini sent back images of. Weird.
