Buried man is saved by pal

- BY CHRISTOPHE­R BUCKTIN US Editor

A MAN saved a friend who was buried alive after a hole he was digging caved in around him.

Clive Turner, 62, had got 10ft down while hunting for antique bottles.

Pal Roger Keddy, 62, called emergency services and started digging in Elsecar, South Yorks.

He said: “Clive was buried. I managed to reach his face. When emergency services arrived I had dug to around his waist.”

Mr Turner went to hospital and is recovering. NICOLAS Cage has filed for an annulment after his whirlwind marriage to Erika Koike – which lasted just four days.

The Gone in 60 Seconds actor, 55, had only applied for a licence to wed the make-up artist on Saturday and they tied the knot later.

But he submitted papers on Wednesday to end the union, according to court records.

Cage was caught on film applying for his marriage licence in Las Vegas and a witness claimed he looked “out of it” and “most likely drunk”.

At one point he raised his voice and started shouting claims of how 34-year-old Koike’s “boyfriend” was a drug dealer.

SCENE

The witness said: “The whole time he was yelling, ‘She is going to take all my money’, and, ‘Her ex is a druggy’. She kept saying, ‘Baby, I am not asking you to do this’.”

Cage and Koike were said to have made such a scene they were ushered into a private room.

The couple started dating around a year ago. She has been wed before.

Cage, star of Face/Off and Con Air, has had three previous marriages. He tied the knot in 2004 with Alice Kim and had a son Kal-El in 2005. The pair split in 2016.

The actor wed Lisa Marie Presley in 2002 but that only lasted three month. He was married to True Romance and Medium star Patricia Arquette from 1995 until 2001.
