A THIEF kept police at bay for more than an hour before they realised that dynamite and detonators strapped around his waist were really sausages.
Sing He, 23, threatened to blow up a restaurant in Benxi, northern China, unless the owners handed him the day’s takings.
But it was only when a specialist bomb squad arrived that cops realised the bangers were made of pork.
“When we saw what he had round his waist we couldn’t help laughing. Some of the sausages still had the wrappers on them,” said one bomb squad officer.
“It must have been terrifying for the customers but those things would only have gone off if you’d kept them past their sell by date.”
He told police he’d planned the raid because he was depressed after breaking up with his girlfriend.
“I needed some excitement in my life and to that extent it was a success,” he explained.
