Smelly feet trigger police raid


German police broke into a darkened apartment fearing they would find a dead body, after neighbors complained of a nasty smell.

German police broke into a darkened apartment fearing they would find a dead body, after neighbors complained of a nasty smell seeping out onto the staircase.

Yeah - I thought this was going be another one of those discoveries of a mummy sitting in front of the TV set.

The shutters of the apartment had been closed for more than a week and the mailbox was filled with uncollected mail.

But instead of a corpse, they found a tenant with very smelly feet, asleep in bed next to a pile of foul-smelling laundry, said police in the southwestern town of Kaiserslautern.

Eeeoouw!
