Stoned in South Africa?
A woman in the South African province of Limpop was booted from her village because a hail of stones seems to follow her wherever she goes. Apparently, the problem is caused by an evil spell cast on her by a trader when she didn't pay him back for some clothes she purchased on credit:
"We were there for nearly the whole night and saw stones falling from the sky like rain," said Vhembe police spokesperson Ailwei Mushavhanamadi. "We went around the area to make sure someone wasn't throwing stones on the roof on purpose, but we didn't find anyone."Maybe. Link
Police then advised the family to consult with spirit mediums about the phenomenon.
"Maybe if the family contacts someone who deals with evil spirits, like a pastor, the problem will stop," he said.
