Czech bank robber hands himself in 'after paying back his friends'

A Czech bank robber handed himself in a day after stealing thousands of pounds saying he had taken the money "to pay back good friends", leaving police dumbfounded. The robber had first called the police just 10 minutes after purloining the equivalent of £6,000 from a Prague bank to tell them he would appear at a police station the next day, and he was true to his word. Tomas Hulan, from the Prague police, said that even the city's most experienced detectives had never experienced a case like this.

"He came in confessed to the robbery, and explained he had to do it because of financial problems," said Mr Hulan. "Apparently some 'bad people' had stolen his money but some people had helped him out and he wanted 'pay the good friends back'." The robber, who has not been named for legal reasons, went to the bank in the Radotin district of Prague and waited patiently in a queue. When it was his turn he handed a note to the cashier telling her he had a gun and to hand over the money. But his friends who received the cash will have to return it, and could even face a police investigation if they accepted the money knowing its criminal origins.

Christians threaten to BOYCOTT Costco after pastor posts picture of Bibles labeled 'Fiction' in the book section

Somebody finally put that book under the right label!

Some fundamentalist Christians are threatening to boycott Costco after a pastor in Southern California posted a picture of Bibles at one store labeled 'Fiction'. Caleb Kaltenbach, the lead pastor at non-denominational Discovery Church in Simi Valley, was shopping at Costco for a present for his wife when he came across the bibles and found the label strange. Unable to find a store employee to question, Mr Kaltenbach snapped a picture of one of the Bibles and posted it to Twitter. 'Costco has Bibles for sale under the genre of FICTION. Hmmmm...' he wrote.

Woman suffers terrible headaches after she is fitted with human hair weave 'taken from a CORPSE that was filled with flesh-eating maggots that burrowed into her skin'

A woman claimed she was plagued with blinding headaches after she was fitted with a human hair weave reportedly filled with flesh-eating maggots that burrowed into her head. Irene Myangoh, a personal assistant at a law firm in Nairobi, Kenya, paid a salon for the hair piece which doctors believe may have come from a corpse. After two weeks, she started suffering from severe headaches which painkillers did little to ease. When blood tests and a brain scan also came back negative, she went back to her doctor who examined her scalp and reportedly found maggots eating into her skull. The doctor said the maggots had likely hatched from eggs contained in the hair which she believed came from a dead body, it was reported by African internet TV station iReportersTV.

HALLOWEEN PARTY (1953)

This must be the scariest shit I've seen in years...

Illinois church looks like male private parts when viewed from Google Earth

Wouldn't surprise me in the least if the architect pulled a number on them... If he did? I salute him...

This Illinois church may want to rethink its motto of "Rising Up." That's because the Christian Science Society's building — in the appropriately-named town of Dixon — looks like a giant phallus from space. From street-level, there appears to be nothing comical about the edifice. But a God's eye view transforms the erection into a dead ringer for an enormous member. Eagle-eyed Redditors using Google Earth first spotted the likeness earlier this week.

6.66 the number of the bleat: Polish exorcists warn against price of goats' cheese

Appearing in a catalogue promoting a "French Week" at the Lidl supermarket chain, and without a decimal point, the price, for the exorcists, bore too great a similarity to 666, the number of the beast recorded in the Bible. The fact that it adorned a cheese with an image of a goat on it exacerbated their fears as goats also with come with their own satanic symbolism. "I can clearly see the sign of Satan and the horns," said exorcist Elzbieta Gas. "It is significant because there are people out there who can feel evil energy, and this is for them. "In the world there is a struggle between the forces of light and darkness, and here you can see that evil prevailed," she added.

Man arrested for stealing 200 bicycle seats for their 'scent of a woman'

TOKYO — Kanagawa Prefectural Police have arrested a man for stealing three seats from women’s electric bicycles in a housing complex at around 4 a.m. on Aug 24. After searching Kondo’s home, they uncovered a further 200 seats. According to police, Joji Kondo admitted to the crimes saying “I wanted to smell the lingering scent of a woman.” MSN News Japan reported the 35-year-old as saying “I like the texture of the leather and the smell it has. I would lick it and sniff it.” The three seats were valued at 18,000 yen and the other 200 were estimated to cost a further 1,200,000 yen in total. According to the investigation, Kondo targeted bicycles which were also fitted with child seats, so he knew it had a woman rider.

70-year-old Australian man 'lodges fork in penis'

In a case considered so unusual it was written up in a medical journal by the three operating doctors, the man inserted a four-inch steel fork into his urethra in an attempt to achieve sexual gratification. But the fork became stuck and was not visible when the man presented to doctors hours later. The doctors could feel the utensil and observed it on X-rays. They then extracted the fork free using forceps and "copious lubrication" while the patient was under a general anaesthetic.

The case was written up in the International Journal of Surgery Case Reports two weeks ago in a paper titled "An Unusual Urethral Foreign Body". The doctors said they wrote up the case "given the great management challenge faced by the oddity and infrequency with which a fork is encountered in the penile urethra". “It is apparent that the human mind is uninhibited let alone creative," they wrote. “Autoerotic stimulation with the aid of self-inserted urethral foreign bodies has been existent since time immemorial and have presented an unusual but known presentation to urologists."

The Canberra Times newspaper said the paper reports other strange objects which have been found inside the body, including needles, pencils, toothbrushes, light bulbs, thermometers, leeches, snakes, cocaine and glue. The paper also notes that many patients tend to be embarrassed and try to extract the objects themselves but this can cause further injuries. Other patients are embarrassed and delay seeking medical assistance but then risk infections which can lead to death.

Syrian religious group bans croissants because they symbolise ‘oppression’
