Family steal own roof

A Polish family in a block of flats stole their own roof after working out they would not get wet if it rained. The theft was in the town of Bytom in south-west of Poland where extra cops have been drafted after authorities complained thefts were now such a problem that nothing was safe.

A police spokesman said: “One family occupying the ground floor of an apartment block worked out that they would not get flooded if there was no roof on the building, so they stole it.”

Maximum reward for minimum risk – very enterprising of them.
