Bridge too far?

Two Macedonian men who stole two 30ft bridges have been arrested after they tried to sell them to a scrapyard.

Police said Nikodim Bozinovski and David Gorgievski had taken the two 30-foot bridges over the rivers Crna Reka and Rajec down piece by piece.

They were caught after a scrapyard dealer got suspicious when 20 trucks loaded with 200 tonnes of steel turned up at his yard.

He called police who traced the parts of the bridge and arrested the two men.
