Help me with this problem! (Grammer)

Ok.... so I need another help with another problem this time. This time, the question was to find all sentences that with wrong grammar from the following list.

---------------------------------------------------------

A. Peter Johnson, a 50-years-old waiter, was carrying his thermos.

B. He was drinking iced coffee from his thermos when the lights went out.

C. When the police checked his thermos, he drunk all the coffee.

D. He tried to borrow money from Mr. Rich's bank, but was turned down.

E. James Hamilton, 41, unemployed.

F. He was fired from the bank by Mr. Rich.

G. When we checked the newspaper, it was on last week.

H. The first and last pages were missing.

I. He was sleeping when he heard Mr. Rich crying for help.

J. When the police checked it, it had broken.

-----------------------------------------------------------

The answer was A, C, E, G, J and my answer was A, C, E, J.

I do understand why E is wrong since it was a sentence missing a verb but still, I am reluctant to give it up.

I want to ask those in English speaking countries whether or not if you guys sometimes use it the way above in your daily life. If you can get me some kind of an explanation or a single sentence from a magazine, then, I might be able to persuade my teacher to make it right.

So, Please help me!!!!!! Please! Please! I beg you!!!!

Thanks
