Dumb Criminals: Drunk French Teenagers Steal Llama From Circus, Take On Train Joyride
f you witnessed a llama - yes a llama ! - getting on the tram on thursday morning in Bordeaux, you do not need to worry: this is not necessarily a hallucination and may have nothing to do with too much drinking of that wonderful red wine the city is famous for worldwide.
On thursday morning before dawn, five young people, who had just left a disco in the Bassins à Flot area, went wandering up to the street Rue Lucien Faure, where a Franco-Italian circus currently resides.
Obviously very drunk, a crazy idea crossed their minds when they noticed a cage, in which several animals were being kept. They entered the circus' site and stole a llama (named Serge, like a famous french crooner) ! The youngsters pulled the rope around the animal's neck to make it walk out of his cage.
On the same occasion, they also stole a lion (well... a plush lion doll, that is !) and a trombone.
