LIFE goes on despite coronavirus - well, sort of.
A 57-year-old Romanian politician who sadly succumbed to COVID-19 has been re-elected as mayor, about a week after his death in hospital.
Ion Aliman was running for this third term heading up the southern town of Deveselu, but during the campaign he tested positive for the novel coronavirus.
His condition deteriorated and unfortunately he died last week - but that didn't deter his ardent supporters, with Aliman winning the election in a landslide.
The local election bureau said Aliman's name remained on the ballot because the papers had been printed before his untimely demise.
After his victory his fans "headed to the cemetery to celebrate," according to local Romanian media.
Police in Florida, USA are investigating the extremely bizarre theft of cat blood from a veterinary clinic.
Officers are tracking a man caught on surveillance video in connection with the alleged larceny, after he was seen suspiciously inspecting a "blood box" awaiting pickup by a pathology clinic.
A few minutes later a truck pulled up and a man wearing the same clothing walked to the clinic with his face shielded and stole the box.
The Anastasia Cat Clinic said the four vials of feline blood were worth about $600.
