Possum Pirouette of Doom!
A washed up ballerina and actress was driving in Los Angeles and spotted an injured possum. The crazy woman left her car running and ran into the street to help the animal and she was rewarded by being struck by two vehicles and dragged for 600 feet.
From the DailyMail here:
A renowned former ballet dancer and actress was fatally hit by two vehicles and dragged more than 600ft along the road after getting out of her car in an apparent attempt to help a wounded animal. Zina Bethune, 66, whose married name is Zina Feeley, was driving near Griffith Park in Los Angeles, California, when she saw what she thought was a wounded animal.
She left her Lincoln Town Car running on Forest Lawn Drive early on Sunday morning and got out to help what turned out to be a dead possum, when she was hit by an eastbound vehicle.
Ms Bethune was then thrown into the opposite lane, where she was hit by another vehicle that dragged her body more than 600ft, police said. She had severe head injuries and died at the scene.
What a stupid way to die. Bethune can be scraped up with a snow shovel and tossed right over the fence into Forest Lawn cemetery since that was where she became roadkill.
This reminds me about the time I fired an employee for playing with dead kitties.
