Criminally Bad Singing?

Plus: BB guns, a trapped teen and other selected calls from Aliso Viejo to the Sheriff's Department, Dec. 19-26.

Here's a guy who apparently won't be on The Voice anytime soon. Deputies were dispatched Wednesday to silence a skinny man wearing sunglasses, black clothing and a cast on one arm. His crime: standing on some steps in the 0 block of Trillium Place and "singing random songs in a horrible voice."

The bad music report was filed at 1:03 p.m. The singer agreed to leave the area after deputies arrived.
