Did Aliens Start Fires In Sicily?

Electrical appliances, both plugged and unplugged, mysteriously started to burst into flames in Sicily a few years ago. The official report on the incident mentions a possible connection between a UFO seen in the area and the fires. Being the unbiased reporters we are, some local residents also thought it was the work of demons who routinely inhabit electrical appliances in the area.

Custody Battle Over Mummified Leg

Shannon Whisnant says he absolutely believes he’s the rightful owner of a leg he found in a grill he purchased Sept. 25.

“I’ve got the receipt,” he says.

Whisnant bought a cooker at an auction at Maiden Plaza Mini Storage. When Whisnant took the grill home to clean, he opened the lid and found a mummified leg, from shin to toe. Whisnant said he was shocked when he first saw the body part.

“I was in disbelief as to what it was,” the Maiden resident said. “I didn’t know if it was carnage from a murder or what.”

It turns out the amputated leg belongs to a South Carolina man who used to rent a unit at Maiden Plaza Mini Storage. John Wood’s leg was amputated after a plane crash. He legally kept the leg for religious purposes, telling doctors he wanted to be buried as a whole man.

When John Wood reportedly stopped paying his bills, the company legally auctioned off any items left in the unit.
