Odd News Briefs: Boxing Trim & Dumpling Quest
In a peculiar boxing match in Norfolk, Virginia, Austin DeAnda got an unexpected mid-match haircut when his braids came loose. Meanwhile, in central China, the 'Night Riding Army', a group of students on a viral soup dumpling quest, caused traffic chaos in Kaifeng.
In an unusual turn of events during a boxing match in Norfolk, Virginia, middleweight fighter Austin DeAnda was forced to get a mid-match haircut. The incident occurred on Friday night as DeAnda faced off against DeAundre Pettus. DeAnda's braids came undone in the third round, obscuring his vision, and necessitating an impromptu trim to continue the fight.
Elsewhere, in central China, local police imposed traffic restrictions to control a surprising new trend. Thousands of university students had been borrowing share bikes to embark on nightly rides to Kaifeng, a city known for its breakfast offerings, including soup dumplings. This spontaneous gathering, dubbed the 'Night Riding Army', led to highway congestion as images posted on social media revealed a massive turnout.
