FOOT in mouth pharmacy thief.
A burglar who taunted police
from a top floor window after
he broke into a pharmacy has
appeared in court in the UK.
According to testimony from the
prosecutor, during his rush to get
inside the pharmacy, the 20 year
old had left one of his sneakers on
a neighbouring roof.
The miscreant, who pleaded
guilty, had been seen to throw
a brick through the pharmacy
window and go inside.
Police were called, and when
they arrived, he was still inside,
leaning out of the window and
shouting “come and get me”.
However after officers told him
to get down he surrendered, and
was described as “compliant”.
A subsequent search revealed
he was carrying diazepam from
inside the pharmacy, and he was
sentenced to 14 months in prison.
TOILET attendants at last
weekend’s Glastonbury music
festival in the UK were equipped
with a secret weapon against
what must have been an
overpowering stench.
More than 180,000 people were
expected to attend the festival,
and to cope with the demand
around 5,000 portaloos were
trucked in.
An army of so-called “sanitation
volunteers” were issued with
“extra-strong menthol sweets”
to arm themselves as they
undertook period inspections of
the facilities.
A WOMAN in New Zealand had
to make a difficult emergency call
last week, after she accidentally
superglued her lips shut.
Police initially thought the
64-year old had been kidnapped
and was making a muffled plea
for rescue, with officers saying
“basically she could only grunt”.
However when the ambulance
arrived they found she had woken
in the night with dry lips and
mistakenly reached for the glue
rather than some lip balm.
