PUNXSUTAWNEY - State police have charged a central Pennsylvania man with public drunkenness after he was seen giving mouth-to-mouth "resuscitation" to a long-dead opossum along a highway.

Trooper Jamie Levier says several witnesses saw 55-year-old Donald Wolfe, of Brookville, near the animal along Route 36 in Oliver Township Thursday about 3 p.m. The trooper says one person saw Wolfe kneeling before the animal and gesturing as though he were conducting a seance, while another saw the mouth-to-mouth attempt.

Levier says Wolfe was "extremely intoxicated" and "did have his mouth in the area of the animal's mouth, I guess."

The Associated Press could not locate a home telephone number for Wolfe.

Oliver Township is about 65 miles northeast of Pittsburgh.

I live here, so I don't know why this shit even surprises me anymore.

Something has to be interesting about small animals during months that aren't February.

Isn't this the town where the movie Groundhogs Day was based in?

Yes. They actually have a groundhog there too. I've never been there, and I'm not sure how close I live, but all the papers around here always have huge articles about Punxsutawney Phil on Groundhog's Day.
