Man sentenced over wombat rape claim

A New Zealand man has been sentenced to community service after telling police he had been raped by a wombat and the experience had caused him to start speaking "Australian".

Arthur Cradock, a 48-year-old orchard worker from Motueka on South Island, rang police on February 11 to say he was being raped by the slow-moving Australian marsupial at his home, The Nelson Mail reported.

He rang back soon afterwards to say he was withdrawing his complaint against the wombat, a court was told.

"Apart from speaking Australian now, I'm pretty all right you know," he told police in the second call.

Cradock pleaded guilty to using a phone for a fictitious purpose and was sentenced to 75 hours community work.

Prosecutors said alcohol played a large part in Cradock's life, although his defence lawyer said he was not drunk on the afternoon of the phone calls.

Wombat is SHOCKED by allegations and puts out the following statement to the media: "I did...not...have...sexual relations with that human...Mr. Cradock."

Nah. I would have posted this story any time throughout the season and even during Super Bowl week.

It's a story you just can't ignore.

That wombat looks like the one getting violated.

Next week you will be posting about the woman who faces 15 years for knocking a mother of 3 into a coma after she cut in line at Disney.

* Not the actual Wombat alleged to have done the deed, unless by a crazy coincidence.
