Exploding Cow Drop

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) --
Ethem Sahin thought his friends were kidding when they told him how he ended
up in the hospital.
But they witnessed the cow fall through the roof of the coffee house where
they were playing dominoes and knock Sahin unconscious.
"My friends told me later what happened. I couldn't believe it," Sahin told
the Anatolia news agency.
Sahin's wife, Rahime, was equally incredulous.
"They told me that a cow fell on top of my husband," she said. "I thought
they were kidding me. May God protect us from a worse accident."
Sahin was treated in the hospital for a broken leg and needed seven stitches
to his forehead after the freak accident Tuesday in the central Anatolian
city of Nevsehir.
The cow apparently wandered from the hillside where it was grazing onto the
roof of the coffee house, which was built into the side of the hill.
The cow was not seriously injured.
