    Emmanuel Pilera Beheaded In Freak Accident

    MANILA, Philippines—A man was beheaded in a freak accident in the middle of a heavy downpour in Navotas City on Sunday night.
    Emmanuel Pilera, 20, a laborer of a garments company on Galicia Extension in Barangay Bangkulasi, was walking home at around 8:30 p.m. when lightning struck an electrical post and cut several of the high-tension wires.
    As the wires swung to the ground, some wrapped themselves around Pilera’s neck, according to PO1 Philip Edgar Valera, an investigator of the city police.

    As a result, the victim was electrocuted while his head was severed from his body.
    A police report said Pilera’s head was found a few feet away from his body.

    “The voltage was extremely high, not to mention it was raining,” Valera added.

    A tricycle driver, Joel Mutya, 35, was injured when some of the wires hit him on the foot, causing him to fall off his vehicle.
    Luckily, he survived with just a few scratches on his knees and an injured toe.

    I'm sorry but I LOL'd when I read the above.
    Can you really refer to a Tricycle as a vehicle?

    In the Phillipines a tricycle is a 3 wheeled motorized vehicle that's commonly used as a taxi cab.
