Megadeth Saves Boy From Wolves
13-year-old Walter Acre was encircled by wolves while walking home from school, but luckily for him he had some Megadeth on his phone. From the article: "Just as they seemed set to attack, the petrified youngster pulled out his phone and cranked out a song by Megadeth. Walter had previously been told not to run away from wolves but to face them and attempt to scare them away. And sure enough, the tactic worked as the sound of heavy metal music sent the animals scattering in confusion."
The story itself is true enough. What's wrong is that it was Megadeth.
It was Creed's "Overcome" the kid played.
This according to the original story and the video interview with the kid:

Can even see it in the pic of the kid showing his phone with the track he played =)

unfortunately the music was played publicly and he will now be encircled by a pack of RIAA lawyers demanding performance payments instead.
