Drunk Teen Falls 20ft Off Escalator, Raw Footage


Drunk Teen Falls 20 feet Off Escalator
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- A drunk teenager fell like a rag doll from an escalator in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The jaw-dropping 20-foot drop was caught on surveillance video.

Shane O'Malley, 18, could be seen on surveillance video climbing on to the handrail of the escalator as he rode it up.

O'Malley told police he had been drinking, an MBTA spokesman said, but O'Malley said he couldn't remember exactly what happened.

"We had been to a concert -- the Dispatch concert. We had been drinking before the concert and then at the concert and I, obviously, got too drunk and was irresponsible," O'Malley said.

Within seconds, O'Malley lost his balance and fell to the concrete floor below. He lay motionless for several minutes as friends gathered around him.

O'Malley was taken Beth Israel Hospital for treatment. He was released after treatment for a fractured elbow, according to his family.

"My back's killing me. It might just be wicked stiff but it's making it really difficult to get around," he said.

"I've been telling him how lucky he is, but he doesn't really remember much about the fall," said his father, Steven O'Malley.

He warned other kids to avoid making the same mistake.

"Don't do it. Don't drink. It's not worth it. It might appear to have a good time but it can easily get out of control," Shane said.

Two Elephants Rampage through streets of Mysore, India



Two wild elephants have gone on a rampage in southern India, killing at least one person, officials say.
The elephants left a trail of destruction in a suburb of the city of Mysore, in the state of Karnataka.

Officials say the animals walked into the city from a nearby forest, leaving residents running for their lives.
one elephant barged into a women's college compound and wandered the grounds, while the other wreaked havoc in a residential area.

Forest rangers and officials from Mysore Zoo later tranquilised and captured the animals.
Encroachment

A 55-year-old man who left his house in the Bamboo Bazaar area of Mysore after hearing the commotion was trampled to death, Karnataka state Higher Education Minister SA Ramdas told AFP news agency.

The elephants are thought to have come from a nearby forest
Mr Ramdas said schools and colleges in the city were closed throughout Wednesday and extra police had been deployed as a precaution.

State forest department officials said the young elephants came from forest about 35km (22 miles) from the city.
They say that two other elephants remain at large on the outskirts of Mysore.

One official blamed the rampage on human encroachment into areas traditionally inhabited by elephants.
 "Unregulated expansion of farm lands and increasing movement of people and vehicles through the elephant corridor are making the wild jumbos enter into villages and towns in search of food and shelter," he told AFP.

Mr Ramdas said that the two captured elephants would be released back into the wild.
