By Cara Torres


In our modern society, you can find many amusing stories on the TV, newspapers, and mostly on the web, which either make you laugh or are just plain weird. Here are examples of the many strange news articles that can bring some amusement to you today. The first story is about a pregnant woman who gave birth after being struck by a lightning.

It was the fourth of July, the couple were watching a firework show with a bunch of friends when a lightning bolt struck both of them in front of their yard. The next thing they knew is that they were unconscious on the ground and their friends were trying to keep them calm. Being weeks from the due date, the new mother was rushed to the hospital for an emergency Cesarian operation.

It was a good thing that the mother, father and the baby were not injured in any way and all were fine. On the other hand, another father rolled his car four times while his wife was giving birth to their child beside him. They were en route to the hospital when his wife started to give birth and brought out their daughter, which fell headfirst to the floor.

His eyes left the road which resulted in the car veering into a ditch and rolling over four times. It was a miracle that no one was hurt, including the newborn baby and their two young children at the backseat. They were brought to the hospital in good condition by emergency workers though he was sad about wrecking the car, which belonged to a friend.

In another very funny tale, a police officer chased himself for nearly 20 minutes after an operator of a CCTV saw a shady character on the streets. To get some help, he called for a plainclothes officer and the said operator gave out the directions where the suspicious man was by using the CCTV cameras. The officer seemed to be very close to the shady person, but he could not find him until he realized that the suspicious person was himself.

In another place, in hopes of turning over the trial of Jesus Christ, a very religious lawyer filed a case to the International Court of Justice. He declared that it was an unlawful trial and he demanded that the responsibility should fall on Israel and Italy. However, it was rejected since the involved people are over 2000 years dead.

In another tale, a stolen car landed above the house on the roof, which is very reminiscent of an action or comedy movie. As retold by the police, the car was speeding too fast when it hit a big rock and a tree stump then rocketed into the air which then proceeded to land on the roof. The stealer fled the area and was then arrested later on.

On a lighter note, a family was stunned when a dolphin gave the fish it caught to a teenage girl as they were kayaking. At first the mammal was playing with them when it suddenly dove down and dropped a big cod beside the girl. At first they wondered if it they should pick up the dead fish in case the dolphin might want it for itself.

Seconds later, the dolphin resurface second later with his own fish, a sea bass, and began tucking in. Grateful for the fish, they took it home and cooked it for tea. These are some of the strange news articles today that will hopefully lighten your day.
