Stale bread kills man

BANDUNG, West Java: A man died in extreme pain after eating
some stale bread from a jar in his office, situated on Jl.
Abdurahman Saleh No. 50, on Sunday night.

The victim was identified as Jumadi, 29, who worked as a
warehouse security guard for a marketing firm, PT Dahlia
Dewantara, on Jl. Abdurahman Saleh.

Jumadi's colleague, Soim, 28, said the incident happened at 9
p.m. on Sunday, after both he and Jumadi had returned from
dinner.

"When we returned, he was still hungry. He must have seen the
stale bread in the jar in a corner of our office, and must have
immediately eaten it," Soim said as quoted by Antara.

West Bandung police precinct officers have taken a portion of
the stale bread as evidence for examination.

Soim said that minutes after they returned to the office from
dinner, he heard a scream and then saw Jumadi on the floor.

"He was foaming at the mouth, shaking like crazy. He was
clutching his stomach tightly and his eyes looked like they were
going to pop out. He died seconds later," Soim said at the Hasan
Sadikin Hospital here.

"I immediately noticed the jar and was surprised to see that
it was empty." (ylt)
