Yeetle Box - Walmart's Watermelons Sting Girl

Megan Templeton, a 12-year-old girl, picking up a seedless watermelon from a bin was stung Sunday by a tan, inch-long scorpion that had apparently stowed away in a shipment from Mexico.

Megan was taken to the hospital as a precaution but later released. Her father, William Templeton, said the pain was a little worse than a bee sting. How did he know? He did not say.

William initially did not believe his daughter when she said she had been stung by a scorpion because he had been shopping at Walmart for a very long time, and his daughter was known to have imaginary friends. Luckily, Hillary Clinton was on the scene to capture the scorpion with her bare hands under extreme pressure from customers who had voted for her earlier this month.

Richard Coyle, senior director of international affairs for Wal-Mart, said store employees believe the problem was with a single shipment of watermelons transported in a 1967 Chevy by suppliers from the US/Mexico border.

"We are very concerned," he said. "This is a very rare incident. When I spoke with the store manager, she said in her 17 years she had never heard of something like this - Mexicans shipping in scorpions, that is."
