Tanzania: stolen sack of maize gets stuck on a man’s head - Photos

In a bizarre incident, a man in Mbezi, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania was forced to surrender to police after a sack of maize he had stolen got stuck on his head.

23-year-old Frank Japhet had to walk to a police station himself after the 20-kilogram sack he had allegedly stolen from a woman in Nyambwiro area refused to detach itself from him.

Authorities in Tanzania had to take him in as he had tried numerous methods to get the sack off him but in vain. He was to leave the bag he had stolen at a friend’s place and got get another one, but this one simply couldn’t ‘let go’.

Ohoooooooooo...... Mkazi wa Mbezi, Dar es salaam, Frank Japhet (23) amelazimika kujisalimisha kituo cha polisi Mlandizi, Kibaha, Pwani, baada ya mzigo wa mahindi unaokadiriwa kuwa na uzito wa kg 20, anaodaiwa kuuiba kung'ang'ania kichwani. Kwa maelezo ya mtuhumuwa huyo aliyoyatoa kituoni hapo, mzigo huo wa mahindi, uliofungwa kwenye kiroba aliuiba kwa mama mmoja eneo la mtaa wa Nyambwiro, Mlandizi, Kibaha, Pwani majira ya saa 7.00 usiku wa kuamkia leo. Amesema, alipoondoka na mzigo huo hadi eneo la stendi ya Mlandizi alipokuwa auache kwa mwenzake ili arudie mzigo mwingine, mzigo huo uling'ang'ania kichwani. Amesema, alijitahidi kufanya kila aliloweza ili mzigo huo utoke kichwani ikiwa ni pamoja na kulala ili akinyanyuka ubaki chini lakini aliponyanyuka, alinyanyuka nao kichwani! Baada ya kuzunguka nao kwa muda mrefu, alidai alichoka akalazimika kujisalimisha polisi ili asije akauawa na raia wenye hasira watakapobaini kuwa ni mwizi. Mpaka sasa yuko kituo cha polisi Mlandizi na mzigo wake kichwani akisubiri mwenye mali aliyoiiba ambaye jeshi la polisi Mlandizi tayari limemuita afike kituoni hapo. Tutawaletea taarifa zaidi za tukio hilo.
