Possum playing Possum
Another story from the “You Can’t Make This Stuff Up” file. A Pennsylvania man was arrested for public drunkenness after police witnessed him giving CPR to a very dead possum.
State police have charged a central Pennsylvania man with public drunkenness after he was seen giving mouth-to-mouth “resuscitation” to a long-dead opossum along a highway.
Trooper Jamie Levier says several witnesses saw 55-year-old Donald Wolfe, of Brookville, near the animal along Route 36 in Oliver Township Thursday about 3 p.m. The trooper says one person saw Wolfe kneeling before the animal and gesturing as though he were conducting a seance, while another saw the mouth-to-mouth attempt.
Wow how drunk would one need to be to give CPR to roadkill? I’ll go out on a limb here and say Donald has a serious drinking problem and needs help. Well that seems to be the only explanation I can think for lip locking a dead grinning possum.
