Police have arrested a man for stealing more than 1 million screws from his employers and selling them on the Internet.Police said the 33-year-old assembly worker at an unidentified firm squirreled away screws in a specially designed hiding place and took up to 7,000 of them home every day when he left work.
Over a two-year period, he stole some 1.1 million screws with an estimated value of $155,000, police in the Bavarian city of Wuerzburg said in a statement.
The man sold the screws over the Internet at discount prices, and that alerted police, who wondered where he was getting the vast quantities of components.
