In an unusual turn of events, a bizarre theft has left residents of a small village in shock—cow dung has been stolen!
According to local reports, farmers in the area woke up to find that large heaps of cow dung, which they had carefully collected for use as fuel and fertilizer, had mysteriously vanished overnight. The theft has puzzled both villagers and law enforcement officials, as cow dung is not typically considered a high-value item.
Authorities have launched an investigation, suspecting that the stolen dung may have been taken for commercial purposes, possibly for organic farming or biofuel production. Some locals speculate that a gang might be behind the theft, given the large quantity that went missing.
“This is the first time we’ve heard of such a crime,” said a police spokesperson. “We are treating it as a serious matter and are looking for leads.”
Social media users have reacted with humor and disbelief, with some jokingly calling it the “crappiest” crime in history. Others, however, have pointed out the economic importance of cow dung for rural communities, emphasizing the need for better security measures.
For now, villagers remain on high alert, hoping their valuable “golden manure” won’t be targeted again.
