ACCIDENT IN MERRY RIVER PARK
An accident happened late yesterday in Merry River Park. A cyclist collided with a woman who was walking her dog in the park. The cyclist said that as he went around a bend in the path, an old woman with her dog stopped right in front of him. As he swerved to avoid the dog he accidentally knocked the woman over. 'I know I was riding carefully,' he exclaimed. 'She just appeared out of nowhere.' Ambulance officers treated the woman for shock, cuts and bruises. She stated that the cyclist sped around a bend in the path and crashed into her, knocking her to the ground. 'I always walk my dog here and I've never had any problem before,' she declared. It is clear that both the cyclist and the woman thought they could use the path in safety. It is possible that the cyclist was going too fast, but perhaps the woman was not looking where she was going. An accident happened late yesterday in Merry River Park.

And in other news, a giant echidna was seen approaching Melbourne via the Hume Highway, after taking the Ring Road for several hours until it realised it was just going in circles. If you spot the animal (Tachyglossus aculeatus ginormus), do not approach it, and contact the appropriate authorities. It is believed to be armed (with giant spines) and dangerous. After ravaging Euroa and Beveridge, it is now headed towards Brunswick. If you are currently in this area, it would be prudent to remain indoors at this point.
