2003 Reader Submission

KILLER BISCUITS WANTED FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER (the actual AP headline)

Linda Burnett, 23, a resident of San Diego, was visiting her in-laws, and

while there went to a nearby supermarket to pick up some groceries. Several

people noticed her sitting in her car with the windows rolled up and with

her eyes closed, with both hands behind the back of her head.

One customer who had been at the store for a while became concerned and

walked over to the car. He noticed that Linda's eyes were now open, and she

looked very strange. He asked her if she was okay, and Linda replied that

she'd been shot in the back of the head, and had been holding her brains in

for over an hour. The man called the paramedics, who broke into the car

because the doors were locked and Linda refused to remove her hands from her

head. When they finally got in, they found that Linda had a wad of bread

dough on the back of her head. A Pillsbury biscuit canister had exploded

from the heat, making a loud noise that sounded like a gunshot, and the wad

of dough hit her in the back of her head. When she reached back to find out

what it was, she felt the dough and thought it was her brains. She had

initially passed out, but quickly recovered and tried to hold her brains in

for over an hour until someone noticed and came to her aid.

And, yes, Linda is a blonde
