Romanian police have arrested a naked man with no hands for drink driving.

Officers pulled over his car after seeing it swerving from side to side on a busy road.

They were shocked to find disabled driver Aurel Olteanu, 23, naked in his BMW 3 series in the seaside resort of Mamaia.

Police spokesperson Marius Ghita said: “He had no licence, but told us his he had developed his own special way of driving.

“He said he had been sunbathing on a nudist beach and was travelling home. He had not dressed because he was in a hurry.”

Olteanu who was twice over the legal alcohol limit has been charged with dangerous driving.

I prefer to eat things that can’t give me the black plague.

Live rats are being trucked from central China, suffering a plague of a reported 2 billion rodents displaced by a flooded lake, to the south to end up in restaurant dishes, Chinese media reported.

Rats had been doing a roaring trade thanks to strong supply over the last two weeks, the China News Service quoted vendors as saying.

This guy makes his peers at Enron, Tyco, etc look like boy scouts.  The $3 million lawsuit involves drug abuse, prostitution, abuse, death threats, and spiking Broadcom clients’ drinks with drugs.  To top that, he is currently “being investigated in relation to one of the stock options probes now so familiar to Silicon Valley companies” and he is currently in a divorce-based feud with his wife over more than $1bn in Broadcom stock.  I miss the good old days of embezzlement and fraud.

A copy of the lawsuit obtained by The Register shows Kato accusing Nicholas of carrying a concealed weapon with him at all times, performing Judo chops while standing close to others, threatening people like an angry drill sergeant and vowing to “make people disappear” using contacts formed through work with the Defense Department.

…

According to Kato’s lawsuit, Nicholas used to stroll into Kato’s bedroom at 3 a.m. “holding a plate with a pile of cocaine or other drug, and demanding that he ‘party’ with him because ‘he was bored and lonely.’” Nicholas also made Kato entertain him like a court jester and demanded that Kato take drugs, the lawsuit said.

Nicholas forced Kato to keep a large supply of drugs on hand at all times as well, to “look the other way” when Nicholas spiked clients’ drinks with drugs and to bring prostitutes around for clients’ entertainment, according to the lawsuit.
