In the seaside village of Greatstone, Kent, four new pastel-coloured boxy homes have locals furious, with residents saying they look like Lego bricks and have no place in a traditional English village. In Ann Arbor, Michigan — proudly known as "Tree Town" — residents are calling it a massacre after the local power company aggressively trims back the city's beloved street trees to prevent outages. In Traverse City, Michigan, a woman is accused of shoplifting a bottle of wine by concealing it in a body cavity — officers say even they haven't seen this one before. And a viral video shows a McDonald's employee eating fries off the serving tray and then putting those same fries into a customer's packet — police and the board of health have launched a formal investigation.Five stories. All real. All strange.The Daily Strange — where truth is always weirder than fiction.
