Stray scorpion causes chaos on plane

   September 27 2004 at 07:10PM

Lagos - A Nigerian passenger on a local flight from the southern town of Enugu to Lagos was stung by a scorpion which found its way into his trousers, officials said on Monday.

The victim - Kingsley Adimike - was rushed to a clinic for treatment at the Lagos airport to dress his wounds.

The incident on the Sunday afternoon flight caused a stampede aboard the DC-9 private aircraft among the more than 60 passengers on board, an airport official told reporters, declining to be named.

"Everybody scampered for safety to avoid being beaten by the scorpion. The situation led to a fright and confusion in the aircraft," he said.

He said the crew and passengers were later evacuated and the aircraft thoroughly fumigated to get rid of its unwanted passenger.

No-one could say exactly how the deadly creature found its way into the aircraft, officials say.

The victim has been treated for his injuries.

Probably all wearing sandals. Hell, I wear leather boots and jeans or 5.11s even in the middle of summer.

Beaten?

My god, how big was this scorpion that it could beat up full grown adults.

Ya know what, I'd be wary of it to, but the thing would be crushed the heaviest book I could find pretty damn fast.

What a bunch of wussies.
