Man dies after kangaroo flies through windscreen
A man was killed when a large kangaroo, more than 1.3 metres (4ft) tall, crashed through his windscreen as he drove along a road near Manjimup, Western Australia.
Don't you just hate when that happens? | The kangaroo was flung into the path of the car, shortly before dusk on Sunday about 186 miles south of Perth, after being struck by another vehicle, the police said yesterday. "The animal went through ... into the back seat causing the driver to lose control and crash the vehicle," a spokesman said.
The kangaroo hit the driver, causing him serious head injuries. The man was flown to a Perth hospital but died on Monday.
