A memory of the wildest ever story just came to me and I wanna hear from everyone.
CONTENT WARNING: NSFW, NSFL:
A teenage boy stole his neighbours chicken, then raped and it died during the incident. Yes a chicken.
The neighbour reported it. There were 2 eye witnesses. Medical examination of the chicken confirmed it.
The boy was arrested, confessed and tried. At this point this was national news.
In his defense the dude said, and I kid you not, the chicken was asking for it.
This is one of those news stories that I think about from time to time and wonder what happened to that dude.
Happened in like 2018 I wanna say.

Big fight in a local downtown McDonald’s. Someone films a few seconds of it and a split second of the end of the video shows a guy pulling a raccoon out of his trench-coat. Makes the news worldwide.
My favorite from my time working in the news industry:
Neighbor puts toilets in their yard facing other neighbors house. That neighbor builds a fence so they don’t have to look at the toilets. Original neighbor then hangs toilets from the tree so it is visible over the fence. Cue complaints to get toilets removed by city/county.
I believe the original dispute had to do with tearing out a shared bush and parking on lawn, but I don’t recall the details.
A kid failed out of university and rather than breaking the news to his family he decided to kill all of them. The murder took place fairly close to where I used to work, might have walked pass the house a few times. He’s sent to life in prison.
Construction workers were digging foundations at a local work site and found a Soviet T-34 tank burried in the ground.
Important context:
- My town is not in Russia or the former USSR.
- My town is not in Europe either.
- Our military doesn’t even operate Soviet equipment.
- My town is also not next to a border with a country who might have operated Soviet equipment when it was also not so friendly with my country.
There are some plausible theories, but to this day nobody really knows how it got here or why it got burried.
Ohh and the real kicker: the street this all happened on is named after an indigenous tank, so the news headlines all basically said “Tank found on Tank street!”
Correct ^_^
Tank was likely captured in Egypt in the 50s or 60s, and transported to a military workshop next to the city - probably to study Soviet armour.
Years later the city was expanding, so they decided to move the base someplace else and someone decided to just burry the thing instead of transporting it again.
At least, that’s the official, “logical” explanation that we got that conveniently ignores the possibility of secret Soviet space-time travel experiments!
