A BRAZILIAN WOMAN died after being struck by her husband’s coffin . . .
Marciana Silva Barcelos was travelling as a passenger in the hearse on the way to the cemetery in order to bury her husband, when the vehicle was struck from behind by another car. The force of the smash caused the coffin to slam straight into the back of her head and kill her instantly.
The driver of the car that caused the accident was trapped in the wreckage for fifty minutes before being freed and taken to hospital. The driver of the hearse and the son of the dead man were treated for minor injuries.

GERMAN POLICE are on the hunt for an armless thief who walked out of a shop with a 24″ television . . .
It seems that two accomplices used clamps to affix the tv to his body before helping him out of the shop in Munich, Germany.
Unfortunately staff didn’t realise what had happened until they noticed the tv missing and viewed the CCTV footage. Although a spokesman for the police seemed baffled at how an armless man could walk down a street with a giant tv clamped to his body and nobody actually notice.
