A woman who was found to be alive after knocking inside her own coffin has been declared dead for the second time. Bella Montoya, 76, was pronounced dead after she was admitted to hospital in Ecuador on 9 June with a suspected stroke and cardiopulmonary arrest. However, at her wake, family members began to hear signs of life. She was rushed back to hospital and placed in intensive care under intubation where she remained for seven days before she died, The Independent reported.

"Violent" geese and "out-of-control" horses are "terrorising" people at a UK beauty spot, said The Telegraph. Locals in Berney Arms, along the Norfolk Broads, are angry with a neighbour over her "aggressive" geese, which they claim are "attacking walkers". There are also tensions over horses and a pet fox cub. The woman denies the allegations and insists she keeps her animals safe and secure.

A hotel in Kansas has agreed to honour a 40-year-old gift certificate found by a local couple in their wedding album, UPI reported. Tim and Melinda O'Brien, who spent their wedding night in 1983 at the old Muehlebach Hotel, discovered the certificate as they prepared for their 40th anniversary. It states that the bearer can use it any year on the month of their wedding anniversary to stay at the same price as their wedding night - in this case, $38 (£29.64).
