Mourners at the wake of an Ecuadorean woman were shocked to discover she was still alive. A hospital doctor in Babahoyo had declared Bella Montoya, 76, died following a suspected stroke. She was placed in a coffin and taken to a funeral parlor, where relatives held a vigil before her planned burial. When, after almost five hours, they opened the casket to change her clothes, the woman gasped for air. "My mum started to move her left hand, to open her eyes, her mouth; she struggled to breathe," her son Gilbert Balberán described when he realized his mother was still alive. Video taken by a mourner shows her lying in an open coffin struggling to breathe, while another complains that an ambulance they called has not yet arrived. Minutes later, firefighters arrived, lifted Bella Montoya onto a stretcher, and took her back to the hospital, where she was pronounced dead. Her son told Ecuadorean media that she was in intensive care but was responsive. The incident has raised questio

A pair of Cracker Barrel customers decided their local restaurant needed some sprucing. On Sunday, a TikTok user, @gash.79, who goes by Darcy, posted a video - which has amassed over 18 million views and over 3 million likes - that featured a harmless prank she carried out at a Cracker Barrel. In the now-viral clip, the user mischievously looks up at the ceiling with the caption "adding to the decor at Cracker Barrel" on the screen. She quickly checks her surroundings before pulling a black framed photo out from underneath the table. Darcy then casually approaches the mantel behind her and places the image atop it. Hence, the picture blends in with the surrounding decor, including old jugs, a clock, a washboard, and more Americana. The user then darts away from the mantel with a giant grin. Later in the video, she reveals a close-up of the hilarious photo of herself and seemingly her sister, who also joined in the silly antics. In the black frame was a black-and-white pic of

The Board of Health has issued a warning regarding a woodchuck that appeared at John George Ice Cream in Dartmouth at approximately 5 p.m. on Sunday. There is a possibility that the animal may have posed a health hazard. Those who had direct contact with the creature are advised to seek a rabies exposure risk assessment from a healthcare professional. Woodchucks have a high risk of rabies transmission, and even those that appear healthy might carry the disease in their saliva. People who were bitten, scratched, or had contact with the animal's saliva in an open wound, eyes, nose, or mouth may be at risk of contracting rabies. However, there is a treatment available that can prevent the disease if administered promptly. The Massachusetts Department of Public Health can also be contacted if needed, in addition to a healthcare provider.

It is unfortunately common for truck spills to occur on our highways. From spilled corn to rolling eggs and even dumped waste, we've seen it all. Recently, a semi-truck carrying beer overturned on the I-94 in Jackson County, Michigan, causing a significant amount of chaos. The accident occurred around 5:15am near Sargent Road after Race Road, resulting in numerous beer kegs flying off the truck and spilling onto the road. The incident caused traffic delays as authorities worked to clear the road of alcohol. Some of the kegs split open, causing beer to spill onto the highway. It's essential to determine the type of beer that was spilled during the accident.

A strange incident that seemed straight out of a movie occurred when a 28-year-old woman allegedly posed as a 17-year-old and successfully enrolled in a Louisiana high school as a ninth-grader. However, her masquerade ended on June 13 when she and her 46-year-old mother were arrested by deputies of the St. Charles Parish Sheriff's Office on fraud charges. The school administration received a tip that the female student, registered as a 17-year-old, was actually an adult, possibly in her mid-twenties. Upon conducting an internal investigation, the school administration informed the sheriff's office of their findings. The woman, who hailed from Honduras, attended the high school for an entire year before being exposed. Detectives found that her mother, who lived in the country on an expired visa, used a fake passport and birth certificate to enroll her daughter in school. Parents are questioning the motive behind this bizarre incident. However, according to the information gather

According to official statistics, Swedish inflation decreased in May, although it was still higher than anticipated. Some analysts speculate that the cause for the unexpected inflation was due to the highly publicized Beyoncé concert. Hotel and restaurant prices, which make up 0.3 percentage points of the inflation, were possibly influenced by her concert. In May, thousands of fans attended the two concerts that marked Beyoncé's first solo tour in seven years. Each show had an estimated crowd of 46,000, and many fans traveled from overseas to take advantage of the weaker Swedish currency and lower ticket prices. Some hotels even reached full capacity, leaving some fans to stay outside the capital.

Jeep's parent company, Stellantis (formerly known as Chrysler), has issued a recall for over 331,000 Jeep vehicles worldwide due to a potential safety issue. The recall specifically affects certain models of the 2022 and 2023 Grand Cherokee, as well as 2021 to 2023 Grand Cherokee L SUVs. According to documents released on June 8, 2023, by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear coil springs may have been improperly installed during production, which could cause them to detach from the vehicle while in motion. This poses a safety hazard that could lead to accidents and endanger other drivers on the road. The Jeep Grand Cherokee SUV was manufactured between May 17, 2021, and May 31, 2023, while the Jeep Grand Cherokee L SUV was produced between December 5, 2020, and May 31.

A children's track-and-field meet in Kelowna, British Columbia, was interrupted last week when a man allegedly accused a 9-year-old girl of being transgender. Last Thursday, the girl competing in the track meet in Kelowna was not transgender but sported a pixie haircut. The day, which started out optimistic as the girl placed in the discus event, turned dark when the man began accusing her of being transgender. The man at the Canada meet caused such a scene-even asking the girl's mother, Heidi Starr, for a certificate of proof that her daughter was female-that he was asked to leave, and the event was moved to a different area. The man at the Canada meet caused such a scene-even asking the girl's mother, Heidi Starr, for a certificate of proof that her daughter was female-that he was asked to leave, and the event was moved to a different area. Starr said the man claimed that her daughter and another girl with short hair should be disqualified from competing. The event negati

There will be no more going to Hel on bus 666. The bus to Hel on Poland's Baltic coast has long been popular with tourists. But some Christian conservatives have protested against using a number signifying the devil on a bus leading to a place that sounds like the word "hell" in English. The local bus operator, PKS Gdynia, announced this week that bus 666 would no longer run to Hel. It said it would run the line under 669 from 24 June. Local media said the bus company had acted under pressure from Christian groups that had pushed for the change but was already thinking of returning to the old number amid a public outcry.
