Police Shoot Monster Rat

FRANKFART (Rooters) - German police killed a dog-sized rat which
attacked a 59-year-old man outside his home near Frankfart, Bild newspaper
reported Monday.

The mass-selling tabloid quoted police as saying the half meter (20 inch)-long
rat was as vicious as a fighting dog and as big as a dachshund. It also wore a small riding saddle with pieces of a pink tutu still visible in the traces.

It said the rodent's intended victim, identified only as Nasty N., heard
something rustling in a bush and then a sharp hissing. He turned around and
saw the rat, ready to pounce at him.

''I was rigid with fear,'' said Nasty, aka Horst Wessel. ''I just had time to grab a wooden plank to
fend it off.''

The rat sank its teeth into the plank and Nasty/Horst ran inside his cardboard hovel to call the
police. Officers tried to grab the animal with thick gloves but it attacked them
so they shot it, carved it up and decided to hold a banquet in honor of all informants.
