Youre Sacked

A horrified angler landed the body of a builder stuffed in a sack while he was fishing for trout say police in Hamburg, Germany.

Police believe the construction worker - still wearing his tool belt - had been an illegal immigrant killed in a site accident and dumped in the River Elbe by his boss to avoid an investigation.

"There had been bricks in the sack to weigh the body down but the sack had split and they'd fallen out letting everything float to the surface," said a police spokesman.
