Russian police have detained a 45-year-old municipal worker for stealing
a bridge.
The 5-metre 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".
