A woman in America may well end up searching for a company that sells Toyota car parts this week, following an unusual incident with a fish.

Leighann Niles was on the road in north-west Ohio when an eagle dropped its dinner onto her vehicle causing the windscreen to break.

The freshwater fish in question – known as a sheepshead – fell from some 40 feet up in the air.

Commenting on the impact of the catch hitting her Toyota, Ms Niles said it felt as if a brick had been thrown at the windscreen.

This was not the only animal-related incident she encountered during her trip either.

Earlier in the journey, a truck had struck a small bird, which then rebounded into Ms Niles’ rear passenger door – startling her young daughter.

Meanwhile, motorists who suddenly find they require replacement car parts after an unexpected incident on the road may discover some of the best deals are available online.
