Fish Hook Catches Thief

(Cloppenburg, Germany) Some people simply pick the wrong occupation.

A German thief who broke into an angling shop had some bad luck when he fell and sat on a number of fish hooks. He was quickly caught because he was in too much pain to run. Police said their job was made even easier because the store's price tags were still attached to the hooks embedded in his bottom. [...]

"He couldn't run because he was in a lot of pain and was drunk," Gunda Dreesmann a spokeswoman for the Cloppenburg police.

One of the hooks had to be removed at the hospital. Criminally drunk and stupid, a deadly combination.
