Shark scare turns out to be practical joke
Doctors find Bullet in mans head
SOMERSET, Mass. – A practical joker in Massachusetts has
taken advantage of recent shark sightings and caused a scare with
a fake fin.
Police say about 50 people were drawn to a Somerset, Mass., cove
on Wednesday night after someone reported seeing a shark fin in
the water. Police tell the Herald News of Fall River that several
911 calls came in to Somerset and Swansea police.
Responding officers soon realized that the "shark"
was just a piece of Styrofoam cut into a fin shape, wrapped in
gray duct tape and weighted down.
There was no word on who pulled the prank.
Several Massachusetts beaches have been closed this summer after
shark sightings. Police cautioned that the joke could have caused
a problem had there been a real emergency call.
BERLIN – A 35-year-old man who walked around
for five years with a bullet lodged in the back of his head says
he suspected for a while something was there but only went to
doctors after he started getting headaches.
Robert Chojecki was partying on New Years Eve five
years ago in the German town of Herne when he was hit with the
.22-caliber bullet. Doctors removed it this week from between
his skin and skull.
The Polish-born Chojecki told RTL television Wednesday
he thought he'd been hit by fireworks, but later forgot about
it.
He said at first he had "no pain, but approximately
one year ago I started to get a headache."
Police say the bullet may have been fired in celebration.
Doctors say he should have no problems now that it has been removed.
