This is too funny:

Police are looking for a scorched suspect after finding a hacksaw embedded in an 11,000 volt power cable Saturday night. The would-be copper thief also left his lit blow torch at the scene, and is expected to have smoking, spiky haired and is not exactly the brightest bulb in the socket. "At the very least putting the hacksaw through the cable would have created an almighty bang and the line would have burned for quite a few seconds, showering them with molten copper... We can only assume they left in a great hurry”, said Phil Wilson of the power company
