No. 1511: Quite another story

Last summer the Independent ran a most amusing competition, which I gratefully borrow. You are invited to take a headline from a newspaper this month (please en- close cutting of headline and matter) and write a report which fits the headline but is wildly different from the real one. Max- imum 150 words. Entries to 'Competition No. 1511' by 19 February.
