An Australian man who believes the end is nigh was forced to halt plans for a sprawling nuclear bunker — because his neighbors don’t dig it.

Jakov Loncarevic, of Minyip, was midway through building the 13-footdeep pad with 2,500 bags of concrete when the city council demanded he stop.

Neighbors claimed it was “embarrassi­ng” to live next to the bunker and said it drove down property values.

Lizabeth Ildefonso, 44, requested a “bacon, egg and cheese” from a deputy at the Riverhead Correction­al Facility, according to cops.

A Kansas man lost a $1 million winning lottery ticket but miraculous­ly got it back — thanks to gas-station workers with hearts of gold.

The lucky guy, from Lincoln County, was on his way to watch a basketball game with his brother when he stopped in Salina, bought the ticket and dropped it.

Employees spotted it and launched a mission to track him down. They found him later and returned it.
