The Associated Press ANDREWS,S.C. Policesaya South Carolina high school student accused of throw- ing a paper airplane that struck a teacher in the eye could end up in jail for up to a month. The South Strand News reports that Georgetown County sheriff's deputies arrested the 17-year-old student at Andrews High School. Teacher Edward McIver told deputies that he was upset after getting hit by the airplane because he re- cently had undergone eye surgery. He also told police he and the student had had previous confrontations over the student's behav- ior, and that "something needs to be done." The student was charged with third-de- gree assault and battery and was released from jail on bond. The Associ- ated Press, as a matter of policy, does not generally name juveniles charged with crimes. SCHOOL ASSAULT Pa pe r ai rp la ne h it s te ac her in eye, lands student in jail By Candice Choi The Associated Press NEW YORK A mysterious Skittles spill on a rural high- way in Wisconsin is taking another twist, with Mars Inc. saying it doesn't know why the discarded candy might have been headed to become cattle feed. The case began when a Wisconsin sheriff posted on Facebook this week that "hundreds of thousands of Skittles" had been found spilled on a highway. Later, heupdatedtheposttosaythe candy had fallen off a truck on its way to be cattle feed. Only red Skittles had spilled out, and Dodge County Sheriff Dale Schmidt joked in the post that it would be difficult to "Taste the Rainbow" in its entirety. The incident gained attention after CNN wrote about it, citing a re- port from a local affiliate. A variety of food byprod- ucts are commonly used for animal feed, and Mars says it has procedures for dis- carding foods for that pur- pose. However, the com- pany says the Skittles in question came from a fac- tory that doesn't sell unused products for feed. "We don't know how it ended up as it did and we areinvestigating,"Marssaid. Schmidt said one of his deputiescameacrossthespill and sent him photos, which he posted on Facebook. He said the Skittles spilled from a box that started to disinte- grate in the rain, and about halfofthemgotout.TheSkit- tles on the ground did not have the standard letter "S" on them, he said. The sheriff said he spoke with the farmer, but de- clined to immediately give the farmer's name and did not respond when asked by email how the office con- nected the Skittles with the farmer. Mars spokeswoman De- nise Young said the Skit- tles were supposed to be destroyed because a power outage prevented the signa- ture "S" from being placed on the candies.
