Desperate times call for — well, theatrical measures, as a Ukrainian man has demonstrated. A man from the village of Grybova Rudnya made a phony phone call to the police, claiming that he had murdered his mother’s partner, and insisted that the authorities bring a snowplow with them when making the arrest.
When the officers arrived, they discovered that the “victim” was unharmed, and the caller admitted that he made a bogus phone call.
According to police spokesperson Yuliya Kovtun, the city had cleared the snow that morning, but the man was “not satisfied with the quality of the clearing.” The caller was charged with 119 hryvnias (C$5.37) for the false complaint.
