EPIC FAIL OF THE DAY

Ever heard the phrase, “if you believe this, I have a bridge for sale…” Well, a pair of schmucks stole a bridge and tried to sell it!

The Associated Press reports out of Western Pennsylvania that two brothers have been arrested in the theft of a bridge in a wooded area of Lawrence County along a railroad line about 60 miles north of Pittsburgh. Authorities said the thieves apparently wanted to sell the corrugated steel for scrap. Arrested were 24-year-old Benjamin Arthur Jones and 25-year-old Alexander William Jones, both of New Castle. They allegedly used a blowtorch to break up the Covert’s Crossing Bridge sometime between Sept. 27 and Oct. 5. They face felony charges of criminal mischief, theft, receiving stolen property and conspiracy.
