TAUNTON, Mass. (AP) -- Animal welfare authorities say a dog survived an 11-mile ride from Massachusetts to Rhode Island - at speeds of up to 50 miles per hour - after it was hit by a Toyota sedan and became wedged under the front grill.
East Providence Animal Control supervisor William Muggle says the female poodle mix ran in front of the car in Taunton on Sept. 20. The driver slammed on the brakes, but didn't see the dog, so continued driving.
Muggle tells the Taunton Daily Gazette ( http://bit.ly/SvUTEE ) that it wasn't until the driver reached East Providence, R.I., that another motorist pointed out the dog.
The driver went to the police station, where animal control officials freed the fluffy white pooch. The dog suffered a concussion and possibly a minor bladder rupture.
Authorities are now trying to find its owner.

May 19, 2013 18:44 GMT
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A Powerball ticket sold in Tennessee barely missed winning a share of an estimated $590.5 million prize. But the ticket has a nice consolation prize worth $1 million.
Officials say the Powerball ticket worth $1 million was sold in Chattanooga.
There's no word yet on who won.
A Powerball ticket sold at a supermarket in Zephyrhills, Fla., matched all six numbers selected Saturday night for the estimated $590.5 million prize. It's the highest Powerball jackpot in history.
The winning numbers were 10, 13, 14, 22 and 52, with a Powerball of 11.
