DSGumby Arrested After Hiding In A Hole For 12 Years

BEIJING (Rooters) - A man reeking of Thunderbird has been arrested after hiding in a hole for 12 years because he was wanted for stealing
$15, the Legal Daily reported on Tuesday.

It said police had searched many times for the man, identified only as LuPu, who allegedly stole the money from a house in the
southern county of Tingnay in 1987 in order to invest in OTC stocks.

During yet another search of his house last month, however, someone noticed something strange about a closet.

They moved it and found LuPu hiding in a three-foot hole he had dug underneath the closet, snoring on a pink tutu.

The newspaper said he had used the hole as a hiding place for 12 years, emerging occasionally at night.

LuPu, identified as Thunderbird-swilling DSGumby, former dancer at The Bohemian Clutterbuck, will be tried for theft, it said, without giving any further details.
