Weird BUT true

This attacker is nuts! A psycho squirrel has been terrorizin­g residents of a tiny town in Wales — chomping down on least 18 people in recent weeks, a report said.

Jane Harry, 55, of Buckley, said the ruthless rodent jumped onto her daughter and bit her neck, drawing blood and forcing her to get a tetanus shot.

He’s on the naughty list. A thief was arrested on Christmas Eve for repeatedly breaking into a “couples boutique” in Rockville, Md., to steal more than $2,000 worth of sex toys, cops said.

Marcel Ivan Alvarez, 23, allegedly used a rock to smash out the glass front door of the Knock First Adult Store on Dec. 18 — then returned five days later and pulled the same move, police said.

Eight lives left.

A kitten in Pennsylvan­ia traveled dozens of miles stuck near a car engine and miraculous­ly lived to tell the tail — er, tale.

A family was driving for nearly two hours when they heard mewing and pulled over in Bear Creek, according to the local fire department. They ended up adopting the adorable stowaway as a pet.

What the truck? A semitruck drove 80 miles in Arizona with no human on board using new technology.

The driverless trip was the first successful fully autonomous journey by a big rig on open public roads, according to the San Diego-based firm TuSimple. The company says its virtual driver “can be operated for significan­tly less” cost than a human driver.

He’s old school when it comes to family.

An 88-year-old Texan finally graduated from college this month, side-by-side with his granddaugh­ter.

Rene Neira of San Antonio said it took him nearly seven decades to earn his degree from the University of Texas because he fell in love and started a family young.

Granddaugh­ter Melanie Salazar, 23, said she and Neira carpooled, studied and ate lunch together on campus.
