Canadian Wins Damages In False Pie-Assault Arrest
It is a slow news day. Hence, for compulsive bloggers, the hunt is ever on to find interesting morsels of news for our sites. Here is a great one:
"VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Reuters) - A Canadian lawyer has been awarded more than C$10,000 in damages by a British Columbia court after he was falsely arrested and strip-searched over rumors he planned to throw a pie at the prime minister."
Okay, I love this item not only for it's humour but because it occurred while Jean Chretien and the Liberals were still in power. I wasn't aware how sensitive they were to potential pie attacks. Now I know.
The main question I want to ask however is this; when they strip searched this poor fellow, exactly where on or in his anatomy did they expect to find a cream pie?
