CHESTERTON | Police responded to a crash here Monday night involving a bicycle rider and porta-potty door.

Police were called to assist EMS just before 7:30 p.m. Monday because of an incident on town property near the intersection of Porter Avenue and 5th Street.

According to the victims and a witness, a 52-year-old Chesterton man was riding his bicycle on the sidewalk, passing a portable restroom at the same time a 68-year-old Pleasant Township man was exiting the restroom.

The man on the bike collided with the potty door, throwing the Pleasant Township man back into the restroom, causing him to cut his elbow. The collision caused the Chesterton man to fall off his bike and strike his head on the concrete sidewalk.

Both were treated on the scene by EMS, but refused transportation to a hospital.

100,000 ducks stampede in Thailand



The daily commute can be quite the grind. Maybe you deal with terrible traffic or crowded trains.
Perhaps your route is so unpredictable that sometimes a 15-minute journey can turn into a 45-minute one.
But your commute probably doesn't come with hold-ups like this.

Jack Sarathat lives in Thailand and was driving through Nakhon Pathom, about an hour west of Bangkok.

Suddenly he was forced to bring his car to a halt.

About 100,000 ducks were on the loose and taking over the rural road in the Bang Len district.

"I'm not sure why these ducks are in revolt," Saranthat says to a passenger, as translated by the Bangkok Post.

"You can see the great mass of ducks swarming on the road. They have now occupied the area entirely."

Saranthat was en route to work and worried that he would be late due to the sea of ducks flooding the road.

Impressively, the birds move in sync, not breaking formation as they move past the cars stuck at a standstill.

At one point they even collectively stop, as if for a traffic light.

Video of the duck march was published to both LiveLeak and YouTube, with the various uploads collectively gaining hundreds of thousands of views.

Comments include gems like "Duckapocalypse Now" and "Amazing how orderly they are, staying together, pausing, and so on."

Fortunately for the ducks, it appears their disregard for the motorists did not lead to any avian casualties.
May you be in heaven half an hour before the devil know`s you`re dead!
