Crackheads Excited by 5 Tons of Stolen Ice…But It’s Just Ice
By Michael Frank, Adventure Journal on February 1st, 2012
People will steal anything. Just recently, a group of potheads was busted for smuggling petrified wood out of Petrified Forest National Park, and now, down south, a gang has been charged with stealing ice from the Jorge Monte Glacier in southern Chile. A getaway driver was sneaking away with five tons of glacier blue in his truck when he was nabbed by cops tipped off by national forest agents (not ice-sniffing dogs? dang!). The loot is valued at just $6,200, but the feds are considering filing charges of theft of cultural resources. You go, dudes. Via AFP.
