Popular Post 41chevy Posted January 12, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2018 Man Drives Tank Into Store, Steals Bottle of Wine Witnesses note he seemed drunk By Michael Harthorne, Posted Jan 11, 2018 7:29 PM CST An armored personnel carrier sits next to a shop window it crashed into in Apatity, Murmansk region on the Arctic Kola Peninsula, Russia, Wednesday, Jan. 10, 2018. (Hibinform/Photo via AP) (Newser) – On Wednesday morning in a Russian town just south of the Arctic Circle, a tank rumbled through the snowy streets before crashing into a convenience store, the Independent reports. Reuters notes that witnesses at the scene "did not seem particularly disturbed by the incident." It all started when a man in his late-20s, who witnesses would later say seemed drunk, stole an armored personnel carrier from a military driving school, the Guardian reports. The man drove the tank through a forest and into the town of Apatity. Unable to turn around in a narrow street and having crushed a car parked nearby, the man rammed the tank into the front of a convenience store. He then climbed out of the vehicle's hatch, looked at the destruction, and clambered into the store, where he apparently stole a bottle of wine. The Independent notes "the shop was not licensed to sell alcohol that early in the morning." The man was arrested for DUI 3 2 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/52194-russian-wine-thief/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyGunner Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 He mustve been pushing into that building for quite awhile judging by the piles of dirt and snow behind his tracks. Wonder if he gets sent to one of those scary prisons in the middle of nowhere in Siberia? 1 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

Mack Technician Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 (edited) Nicely done, but poorly planned. Should have taken a whole platoon of "after-hours" bar patrons with him and really put a dent in the liqour store stock.
