Turtle bites drunk man after make-out session

We've all had drunken kisses that we regret the next day. Very rarely do they involve turtles. But one man in Hefei, Anhui Province was left with hurt pride and a sore lip after he got tipsy and tried to kiss a turtle in a supermarket.



Officers from the Xinglin police station brought in the man surnamed Wang (pseudonym) for a night in the drunk tank after he was treated at a local hospital.



Media reported Wang wandered into the supermarket at 8 pm on Tuesday after a heavy drinking session with his buddies.



Surveillance video showed Wang stumbling into the seafood section and handling the turtles in a glass tank. After 30 minutes of foreplay, Wang thrust his head into the tank and emerged with a turtle clamped to his mouth.



Supermarket employees eventually had to cut off the turtle's head to free Wang.



Police were called after an angered Wang became belligerent toward staff.



Wang was shown the surveillance footage at the station the next day. As the fog cleared and embarrassment set in, Wang gave up on his compensation claims against the supermarket and walked out.
