809-pound tiger shark fed to poor
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas (AP) — An 809-pound tiger shark caught in the Gulf of Mexico earlier this month has been cooked and served to more than 90 poor and homeless Texans.
Timon’s Ministries in Corpus Christi set up the donation of about 75 pounds of shark meat. Executive director Kae Berry said the 12-foot, 7-inch shark was the biggest fish ever donated to the center. A chef breaded and baked the meat.
Fisherman Ryan Spring of San Antonio had said he caught the shark after reeling it in for more than seven hours.
Feline survives 12-story plunge
NEW YORK (AP) — A cat named Gizmo has only minor injuries after a 12-story fall at a Manhattan apartment building.
Owner Samuel Jacobs said Gizmo fell off his penthouse terrace on Tuesday. He crashed onto a third-floor landing and became wedged between a skylight and a wall.
Jacobs had to climb out a neighbor’s window to rescue his cat. He said the gray and black cat was “freaked out” but a vet found only scratches and a broken tooth.
