Police in St Cloud, Minnesota said an argument over sidewalk etiquette led to a man being stabbed because he wouldn’t move out of another man’s way. The St Cloud Times reported that the argument escalated into a physical fight. When it was over, the victim noticed he’d been stabbed several times in the stomach.

The incident eerily parallels the plot to the Dr Seuss story The Zax, in which a north-going Zax and a south-going Zax meet face-to-face, and refuse to move out of each other’s way.
