I know how you guys like to make fun of the people from WI. Hopefully this one will give you a good laugh.

A Janesville man ran his truck through the wall of a liquor store after his prosthetic leg became jammed between the accelerator and brake pedal.

Martin Nehls had parked his Chevy Silverado at the Spirits of 51 liquor store Saturday. And, police say when he put the truck into drive, his prosthetic leg slipped off the brake and hit the gas. Then it got stuck between the two pedals, causing the truck to move forward and hit the building.

I don't think it was the leg that made him hit the store. It was probably the booze that he just bought.
