So recently, two crazed guys with a machete threatened workers at a German liquor shop, nabbing several thousand euros in booty before high-tailing it out of there.Plain-clothed police officers arrived at the scene within minutes.
However, in circumstances that can only be described as comical, uniformed cops arrived soon after, got confused, and arrested the plain-clothed officers. Their protests were ignored and they were silenced.
It took them a while to realise the mistake. In fact, they only did realise when one of the cops recognised his colleague in the plain clothes.
Now that's what I call confidence in law enforcement. Perhaps Germany should include some extra police training in their economic stimulus package?
