Sorry man's ass thrown in jail

AN Egyptian donkey has been jailed for stealing corn on the cob from a
field belonging to an agricultural research institute in the Nile Delta, local
media reported today.

The ass and its owner were apprehended at a police checkpoint that had
been set up after the institute's director complained that someone was
stealing his crops, the state-owned Al-Ahram daily said.

The unnamed ungulate was found in possession of the institute's corn and
a local judge sentenced him to 24 hours in prison.

The man who had his ass thrown in jail got off with a fine of 50 Egyptian
pounds ($11.40).

"The ass and its owner were apprehended at a police checkpoint that had

If this had happened in Mass, that camel would be free...the case would have been thrown out due to a lack of signage leading up to the checkpoint.
