Three-vehicle crash blamed on ducks
PALATINE, Ill. - Illinois State Police are blaming a small flock of ducks for a three-car accident that blocked a major highway near the Chicago suburb of Palatine.
Master Sergeant Rene Benavidez says the ducks walked onto Illinois Route 53 Friday afternoon, and a driver had to slam on the brakes to avoid hitting them.
After the sudden stop, the first vehicle was rear-ended by two others.
Benavidez says three people suffered minor injuries from the crash and one of them had to be extricated from a van by the Palatine Fire Department.
The whole highway was shut down for about 15 minutes and traffic was diverted onto Northwest Highway.
The ducks were not injured.
The ducks were not injured.
I just had to laugh at "The ducks were not injured." It reminded me of the "________ were not hurt in the making of this film."
