Mouse Delays Tae Kwon Do Meeting

MAKKAH, 14 April 2005 — Participants at a meeting of Tae Kwon Do technical committee of the first Islamic Solidarity Games in Makkah were aghast when they saw a mouse running around in the room, Al-Bilad newspaper reported. It created such confusion in the room that the meeting had to be delayed until the intruder was chased out. Later it appeared that it was a mouse that had managed to escape from the lab nearby and found its way inside the room. How the mouse escaped from the lab is still a mystery.
