A Seattle man undergoing emergency heart surgery went up in flames on the operating table after alcohol that was poured on his skin was ignited by surgical instruments. The patient later died due to heart failure and not of injuries relating to the fire, said Dr. Robert Caplan, medical quality director of Virginia Mason. Although it happened in October 2003, it has only now been revealed after an anonymous letter was sent to the media. The letter mentioned the incident as evidence of unsafe health care at the hospital, and said the patient burned to death.

By W. J. Brown, All Headline News TORONTO, Ontario (AHN)-- An alleged drunk driver tried hard to beat a police breath test by stuffing his mouth full of his own feces. According to police reports, the man, aged 59, vomited, urinated and defecated in the rear of the police car and after arriving at the station, the suspect grabbed a handful of his own feces "and placed it in his mouth, attempting to trick the breathalyser machine. " Despite the man's efforts, it did not work. The breathalyzer registered two readings that indicated intoxication from samples the suspect provided. Both were more than twice the legal limit. Police then called in paramedics to check the man's condition. "This fellow was in need of help. It's bizarre, but the effects of alcohol can make people do strange things. " stated police.
