Kids sink a Beemer
Copenhagen Police fished three young men out of Sydhavnen last night after they managed to drive a BMW into the harbour.

The trio had managed to eluded police until the driver of the car apparently lost control of the vehicle and dumped it into a canal near Sjællandsbroen.

“Officers found three soaked young men who had escaped the car and made it onto dry land,” Henrik Brix from Copenhagen Police told DR  Nyheder.

Police did not say whether the car had been stolen, but did say that the three joyriders had not been seriously hurt beyond their unscheduled dunk in the harbour.
