Mouse blamed for car crash

Nagel — A mouse was blamed for a two-car accident in southern Germany — after having crawled up a motorist's trousers.

As the rodent squirmed up his inside thigh, the driver slammed on the brakes, causing a rear-end collision with a car driven by a female motorist.

When the woman got out to give him a piece of her mind, the man opened his trousers and hauled out the wriggling mouse, according to a police spokesperson.
