stu Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 VIENNA (Reuters) - Burglars in Vienna opted for a speedy getaway after they found eight severed human heads when breaking into the basement of an apartment building, Austrian police said Friday. A dentist had stored the mummified heads, which he used for research, in a chest in the basement. Burglars stumbled upon the collection when they broke in, police said. "The burglars were looking for loot when they discovered the heads," said a spokeswoman for Austrian police. "From what it looks like, they just left them lying and bolted away." Austrian authorities said they were investigating whether there had been a breach of the regulations for storing research materials. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
