Wurst-Case Scenario Causes Police Alert
Fri Jan 31,11:49 AM ET Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo!
BERLIN (Reuters) - A man who mistook a salami for an automatic pistol triggered a major police operation on Friday in southern Germany, involving 10 police cars and a helicopter.
The man alerted police that he had seen three men handling a gun in a car at a motorway service area. Police cars, dogs and a helicopter chased the car and held up the men, only to identify the "weapon" as a salami.
"Behind the dirty windows of the car, the man had mistaken the salami for a gun," a police spokesman in Traunstein said. "The men in the car had probably passed the sausage through the car."
The salami was returned to its owners, he said.

Another version of the story I saw suggested that several motorists had reported this, feeling that the object had been pointed at them by the car's occupants.
I guess this comes back to that basic safety rule:
Never point your salami at anything you don't intend to use it on. |
