Italian police busted for mozzarella bribes

Italian investigators have busted a ring of cheese-loving cops who demanded mozzarella bribes from motorists. Police officers in the Campagnia region, famous for its mozzarella, stopped cheese delivery vans and forced them to hand over cheese or face a hefty fine. The Italian Interior Ministry said four officers had been arrested and five more were under investigation.

The police are thought to have used the cheese for their own consumption.
