Man arrested for stealing bridge |
2007-09-04 |
Russian police have detained a 45-year-old municipal worker for stealing a bridge. The 5-meter span metal bridge disappeared from a river crossing in the Ryazan region, east of Moscow. Police said they tracked it down to the man, who had used his work truck to remove it and then chopped it up and sold it for scrap. In a statement, Ryazan region police called it "the bulkiest theft of the year." |

#1 And I thought we had a problem with metal scavengers here in New Orleans! They take the rails, but not the whole bridge. |
