Russian car accident images being ubiquitously dumped to unsuspecting Internet users via a common resource as Google Image Search absolutely _reaks_ of 4chan. Tossing in Durant just somehow seems to shore it up. I'd be very surprised if this were just a bug.

It's a cache problem, and it's clearly visible once you click on specific image.

This is an answer by a Google employee:

"Thanks for your question. At the moment we have nothing to share beyond that it's a technical issue on our end"
