BUDAPEST – Two thieves were caught in southern Hungary with 12 pigs stuffed in their small van during a routine traffic check, Hungarian police said on Thursday.
Police stopped two men in a Renault Kangoo near the town of Szigetvar, about 137 miles south of Budapest, as they attempted to drive off.
“The pigs weighed about 25-30 kg (55-66 lb) each — they were really squashed into the car very tightly,” a spokesman said.
Police said the pigs came from a nearby farm, where 35 pigs have gone missing in recent days.
