A slimy, glob-like creature dubbed Gollum has terrified children after it slithered out of a lake and clambered over the rocks towards them.

The young teenagers were playing by the waterfront in a Panama lake near Cerro Azul when the bald beast emerged from a cave behind a waterfall. They started screaming as it shuffled out "as if to attack them".

Locals told Panama news the monster was like "Gollum from Lord of the Rings".

One said: "I have only seen that creature once before - and it was in the Tolkien film."

But in a "desperate bid to defend themselves" four children grabbed rocks from the beach and hurled them at the beast.

Damn. Based on the title I was afraid someone had offed Mr. Carville after a swim. Glad to hear he’s safe...

I can’t help but wonder why the people who always find these things can never get a really good picture.

He looks kinda sad to me. I have a feeling the real monsters were the kids that killed him.

Theories:
  1. That's a victim of NHS healthcare and a preview of us all on Obamacare.
  2. Recent test subject of the Swine Flu vaccine.
  3. Holder of Obama's real birth certificate.
  4. Latest Hollywood diet fad.
  5. E.T. Angry parents will be arriving soon.

    For the record, I want the birth certificate cases pursued, I'll probably take the Swine Flu vaccine and haven't bought the conspiracy theories about it, and I believe Obamacare does have death committies, they just have nothing to do with end of life counseling but rather "cost justification" calculations.
