WASHINGTON—Sources confirmed that Americans all over the country have eagerly assembled tonight to watch a much-anticipated television broadcast in which presidential candidates Barack Obama and Mitt Romney will give a series of brief, meticulously rehearsed speeches on various domestic issues. “I can’t wait to hear what Obama and Romney have already practiced saying hundreds upon hundreds of times over the past few weeks in front of political strategists, media professionals, and image consultants,” said 34-year-old Suffolk, VA resident Shannon Donnelly, adding that she is most excited to hear the two candidates’ carefully rehearsed 90-to-120-second speeches on tax reform and job creation.
Whitley County restaurant shut down after road kill found in kitchen.
WILLIAMSBURG, Ky. (WYMT) – A Chinese restaurant forced to shut its doors after getting caught with a dead deer in the kitchen.
It happened Thursday afternoon at the Red Flower Chinese Restaurant in Williamsburg.
“We were actually joking about the, you know, the whole Chinese restaurant. You know some rumors that you hear,” says Katie Hopkins, a customer of the Red Flower restaurant.
But, Hopkins and her friends never imaged what would happen next, after finishing up a buffet lunch.
“Two of the workers came in wheeling a garbage can and they had a box sitting on top of it. And hanging out of the garbage can, they were trying to be real quick with it. So that nobody could see it. But there was like a tail, and a foot and leg. Sticking out of the garbage can and they wheeled it straight back into the kitchen,” adds Hopkins.
Hopkins immediately called the health department to describe what she saw, “Many people eat there. A lot of locals eat there on lunch breaks and stuff. It was very disturbing. There was actually a blood trail that they were mopping up behind the garbage can.”
Paul Lawson, the environmental health inspector in Whitley County says this is the craziest thing he’s ever seen.
After he arrived at the Chinese restaurant on south highway 25 West, he says the complaints proved to be true after finding roadkill in the restaurants kitchen.
Lawson tells us that the owner’s son admitted to picking up a dead deer off the side of I-75 north in Williamsburg.
This prompted the health department to immediately shut down business.
“They said they didn’t know that they weren’t allowed to. So that makes me concerned. But maybe thy could have before. They didn’t admit to doing it before,” says Lawson.
Lawson tells us that the restaurant can reopen if they pass a secondary health inspection, proving that they have washed, rinsed, and sanitized the restaurant after having roadkill inside.
The restaurant owner tells the health department that he wasn’t going to serve the road kill to customers, but instead to his family.
The Red Flower Chinese Restaurant will not face any fines.
We contacted the owner of the restaurant, but due to a language barrier we were not able to confirm if the family had plans to reopen the business.
Some customers like Katie Hopkins say, even if they reopen, they won’t be going back, “I don’t think I’ll ever eat Chinese food ever again.”
New York Federal Court ruled that a huge chunk of mass arrests issued by the NYPD were unconstitutional. The arrests in question took place at the Republican National Convention in 2004, and the police actions there resulted in 1,800 detained - the most ever during a political convention in the US.
