Police Nab Boy Torching Goldfish with Flame-thrower
BERLIN (Reuters) - German police apprehended an 11-year-old boy as he torched stolen goldfish with a homemade flame-thrower, police said on Wednesday.
They discovered the boy roasting the fish with a device made from a water pistol, a cigarette lighter and a stolen petrol canister. "It was a lethal contraption. He was jolly lucky it didn't explode in his face," said a police spokesman.
Locals had alerted police on Monday after noticing a fire in a yard in the western town of Kellinghusen. Police confiscated the flame-thrower, but were too late to save the goldfish, which were stolen from a neighbor's pond.
The boy's age means he will not be prosecuted. _________________
