The wreck of a Dutch WWII submarine has disappeared, along with the remains of her crew, from Mayalsian waters, reports the Guardian.


"The wrecks of two Dutch submarines sunk off the Malaysian coast during the second world war have disappeared along with the remains of the 79 men who perished onboard.

Researchers discovered just a few remains of HNLMS O 16 and a mere outline in the seabed of the hull of HNLMS K XVII after investigating a possible disturbance.

Both submarines were sunk by Japanese mines in the South China Sea in December 1941 at a cost of all but one of their crews.

The discovery highlights the continued difficulty of protecting war wrecks, which are supposed to be protected under international treaties from being disturbed."

These aren't just wrecks, they are War Graves. I hope the culprits are tracked down.

I think I have read that scrap steel produced prior to 1945 commands a premium for use in highly-sensitive scientific apparatus. All steel produced after that time contains small amounts of radioactive contaminants (due to atmospheric nuclear testing) which can interfere with certain measurements.

You're saying the iron ore, even though it was underground, was affected by nukes?

Police: Woman throws snake at driver in carjacking

Police say a woman stole a vehicle after throwing a snake at the driver, then crashed through barricades set up for a pole-vaulting exhibition in South Carolina.

In a statement, Greenville Police identified the suspect as 29-year-old Hilmary Moreno-Berrios. They she was hurt in Friday’s crash and released from the hospital Monday.

Authorities say Moreno-Berrios demanded a woman’s keys and threw a live black snake at her. They say she then drove the stolen SUV with the snake still in it into barriers set up for the Liberty Bridge Jump-Off.

Moreno-Berrios is charged with carjacking, malicious damage to property and five traffic violations. It wasn’t known whether she had a lawyer to contact for comment on her behalf.

Police say the snake wasn’t venomous and was released in nearby woods.

___

The name Hilmary is correct.

Another update on the Emanuela Orlandi case.

Inside the world's smallest state, the Teutonic Cemetery is easy to miss.

The plot of land, located on the original site of the Emperor Nero circus, is tucked away behind high walls in the shadow of St Peter's Basilica. This graveyard may now hold the key to a 36-year-old mystery that has gripped Italy: the disappearance of 15-year-old Emanuela Orlandi.

On Thursday, police will enter the site to exhume two graves in search of the missing girl. The cemetery is normally used as a burial ground for German-speaking members of Catholic institutions. Tourists aren't allowed along the path which leads towards the graveyard. ...

In March 2019, the Orlandi family received an anonymous letter. It showed a picture of an angel above a tomb in the Vatican's Teutonic Cemetery. Was this a clue to where Emanuela was buried? The family knew that it had to approach the Vatican. But it had had no luck with its previous inquiries. ...

The fact that she was a molecular biologist will likely generate some conspiracy theories.

The body of an American scientist has been found inside a World War Two bunker on the Greek island of Crete.

Suzanne Eaton, who went missing more than a week ago after going on a run, died of suffocation, police confirmed to the BBC.They said they are investigating the case as a criminal act. The 59-year-old molecular biologist from the world-renowned Max Planck Institute in Germany had been attending a conference on the island.

Police in the port city of Chania, where the conference was being held, say she was found on rough and rocky terrain inside the abandoned bunker about 10km (six miles) away from where she was last seen. She was reported missing on 2 July, and police found her body six days later after a large search effort was launched.

Herne Bay Book Ripper

A literary vandal is stalking the streets of Herne Bay in Kent, ripping pages in half in dozens of books in a charity shop and library before replacing them on shelves.

Ryan Campbell, the chief executive of the charity Demelza, which runs a bookshop on Mortimer Street, told the Guardian that since April, around 100 books in the shop have had their pages torn in half horizontally before being reshelved.

“We think it’s been going on for a few months but it’s hard to tell – if you find a ripped book in a secondhand shop you don’t think too much about it, so it’s taken us a while to piece it together. But whatever this person has been doing has been escalating,” said Campbell. “I’m trying not to be too Sherlock Holmes about it, but if there’s such a thing as a quite distinctive rip, well, he or she rips the page in half horizontally and sometimes removes half the page.”

Campbell said that the damage has been stepped up over the last few weeks to “quite a few” copies a week, estimating that this has cost the charity, which provides care for children with serious and terminal conditions, several hundred pounds.

Herne Bay library told the Herne Bay Gazette that it had also had books damaged over the last six months, with members of staff “now being extra-watchful to try to catch the person responsible or at least cut down on the opportunities to cause more damage”, according to a council spokesperson.

Campbell said: “We’ve had to brief our staff that if you find someone doing it then don’t apprehend them. The library has got CCTV and there’s no trace of who’s doing it. But at some point this will either stop – or if it doesn’t then at some point this person will be caught.”
 
Not exactly burning the Library of Alexandra, but so petty that it's surprising it doesn't happen more often.

Nothing found.

Two tombs exhumed and opened after an anonymous tip-off in the search for an Italian teenager who went missing 36 years ago are empty, the Vatican says.

The family of Emanuela Orlandi received a letter earlier this year suggesting the 15 year old's remains might be in the Vatican's Teutonic Cemetery.

But a police search found no human remains in the tombs, the Vatican said.

Not only did the tombs not contain Emanuela, they also did not contain two princesses thought to be buried there.

"No human remains or funeral urns were found," the Vatican said in a statement on Thursday.

The mother could have been saved if medical assistance had been provided.

A woman in the US state of Texas has been arrested after her mother's remains were found in the two-bedroom home she shared with her daughter.

Police believe the grandmother, 71, suffered a fall in 2016. They allege her daughter, 47, failed to provide adequate help at the time for her mother, who died "within a few days" of the non-life-threatening fall. The skeletal remains were found on a bedroom floor. The mother and daughter slept in the other bedroom.

The granddaughter was under the age of 15 at the time she was living with her grandmother's corpse. As a result, her mother has been charged with "injury to a child" under the age of 15.

A woman says she is scared to go out after enduring a "terrifying" encounter with a man wearing a gimp suit in a dark village lane.
She was walking in Claverham, Somerset, when she saw "someone charging at me in a full black rubbery suit".
The man advanced towards her, "grunting and breathing heavily" before fleeing the scene, she said.
Police said there had been a small number of reports of a man jumping out at people in the area.
Officers were called to the scene at about 23:30 BST on Thursday and used a helicopter and sniffer dog in an unsuccessful search for the man.
The victim, in her 20s, said the experience had "hugely affected" her, and she had chosen to speak to the BBC as she was concerned it may happen again.
"I would never forgive myself if this happened to someone else and I hadn't said anything," she said.

He had hell toupee.

A Colombian man had a very bad hair day when Spanish police at Barcelona’s international airport discovered a half-kilo (1.1 pounds) of cocaine under his wig, according to reports.

The “considerably nervous” man, who arrived on a flight from Bogotá at the end of June, attracted officers’ attention because his hairpiece was of “disproportionate size,” authorities said Tuesday.

In what police have dubbed “Operation Toupee,” the officers found a “perfectly sealed package taped to his head” containing about $34,000 worth of coke.

Bones being examined.

Forensic experts have begun studying two sets of bones at a Vatican City cemetery where a missing teenager’s family was tipped to look for her.

Holy See spokesman Alessandro Gisotti said on Saturday that the analysis is being done at the Pontifical Teutonic College, where the bones were found under a stone slab last week. The missing girl, Emanuela Orlandi, vanished in 1983 aged 15 after she left her family’s apartment in Vatican City for a music lesson in Rome.

Thief takes circus trailer containing bed of nails, electric chair

An Ohio-based circus said a trailer thief was likely surprised to find the pilfered container was filled with performance items including a bed of nails, a coffin and an electric chair.

The Cincinnati Circus Company said the black Homesteader Challenger trailer was stolen from the company's private lot Saturday in Cincinnati.

Officials said it was filled with about $10,000 worth of items, including a bed of nails, a coffin and an electric chair.

Ringmaster Dave Willacker posted a photo to Facebook showing a truck driving off with the trailer.

The circus said it has been borrowing equipment from other circus companies to make scheduled performances, but they have had to cut back shows and are hoping the thief will return the trailer. ...

Another suitcase murder. Won't help sales of the suitcase brand.

A prominent Russian Instagram influencer has been found dead with knife wounds in a suitcase in her rented apartment in Moscow, police say.

Ekaterina Karaglanova, 24, was discovered on Friday after her family raised the alarm when she failed to contact them for several days. Ms Karaglanova, who had more than 85,000 followers on Instagram, had also recently graduated as a doctor. Police said they were investigating jealousy as a possible motive.

Ms Karaglanova had recently started a new relationship and had planned a holiday to The Netherlands to celebrate her birthday on 30 July, according to Russian daily Moskovsky Komsomolets (MK). But her parents grew concerned when attempts to contact her in the days leading up to her trip had failed. They then contacted her landlord and requested access to her apartment, where they found a suitcase containing her body in the hallway. Her father requested an ambulance, but Ms Karaglanov was reportedly already dead with a slit throat.

Dozens of old-school TVs found on Henrico lawns

By Samantha Smith - Digital Content Producer
Posted: 11:35 AM, August 12, 2019Updated: 11:35 AM, August 12, 2019

HENRICO, Va. - At least 60 people in Henrico woke up to a strange find on their front lawn -- an old-school TV set, according to NBC 12.
“It was a guy dressed in a jumpsuit with a TV for a head. It’s the weirdest thing. He squats down, puts the TV there and walks off. It’s really weird,” Adrian Garner told the NBC affiliate, looking over the home security footage that caught one of TV-headed suspects.

Police say the suspect or suspects could face charges of littering on private property or illegal dumping, but some residents are finding the humor in the situation.

Massachusetts intruder breaks into house and cleans it top to bottom:

According to the FT report, the only room they left alone was the kitchen. Also, they made roses out of the toilet paper for decoration (see pic at link). This does happen sometimes, doesn't it? The story pattern sounds familiar, at least.
 
Was the old TV a crossdresser, by any chance?
