QUIRKY WORLD ... You never know who is going to crash your bash
The Who frontman was staying in the Mar Hall Hotel, near Glasgow, ahead of his band’s 50th anniversary tour performance in the city, where he met bride and groom Susan and Carl Smith on Saturday.
After posing for some pictures, Daltrey joined the wedding band on stage to perform hit Can’t Explain.
Mobile phone footage of the performance has become a social media hit.
Daltrey also congratulated the newlyweds, who said they were amazed to see him perform for them.
Mrs Smith posted on The Who’s Facebook page: “Absolutely overwhelming! The story we will be telling for the rest of our lives. Thank you so much.”
Police in New Jersey say a man told officers he fled the scene of an auto accident because he “didn’t want to deal with his girlfriend yelling at him.”
They say David Scarpa was having an argument with his girlfriend on Sunday night when he backed into a utility pole in Cumberland County. The caller who reported the hit-and-run said he heard people “yelling” and heard a bang and saw debris by the pole.
Police say the 21-year-old Scarpa then took off and didn’t report the accident immediately. Scarpa later went to police headquarters to turn himself in.
Police said Scarpa has been charged with leaving the scene of an accident and reckless driving.
In France, workers aren’t the only ones who take to the streets to protest – their bosses do too.
Several thousand French business owners, particularly from small firms, demonstrated in Paris to plead with the government to simplify regulations and make it easier and cheaper to hire.
Protester Jean-Pierre Hutin, a hotel owner, urged more flexibility for part-time work, while others complained that layers of taxes and labour rules have made it impossible for France to compete globally.
They argued that the government needs business owners to hire. Socialist president Francois Hollande has sought to loosen labour laws but critics say it doesn’t go nearly far enough.
French unemployment is at around 10% and economic growth has stagnated, threatening to push the whole eurozone back into recession.
Two people charged with shoplifting in the US on Thanksgiving made police officers’ jobs a lot easier for them.
After reports of shoplifting, officers in Nampa, Idaho, responded to a busy car park full of holiday shoppers. For public safety reasons the police decided not to pursue Gregory Redner and Camilla Hunt, both of Oregon, when the pair fled.
But Hunt didn’t make an escape. Instead, she drove in circles. Police laid a spike strip down and Hunt drove over it, deflating her tyres.
A pig was ordered off a US Airways plane at Bradley International Airport in Connecticut after crew members determined the animal had become disruptive.
The pig had been brought aboard the flight by a passenger as an emotional support animal. The passenger scrambled to keep control of the pig while trying to clean up its mess. Then the pig began running back and forth.
Emotional support animals are allowed on commercial flights under US Department of Transportation rules as long as they are not disruptive.
