Banger attack on BMW
A man is facing a hefty fine after attacking a car with a 12ins sausage. The police report says the 49-year-old was walking with his son in Neubrandenburg, Germany, when another man parked in their way. After a short argument, they then began to fight and the first man pulled the sausage from a bag and threw it at his opponent's BMW, leaving a half-inch dent in the door. Authorities say the man was briefly detained and will be issued with a fine for criminal damage.
