Man goes crazy in a digger

A man who claimed he had not been paid his wages of £600 went berserk yesterday in Liverpool, taking out his anger on a Travelodge development he had been working on with a mini excavator!

Various videos of this incident have flooded onto the internet and are certain to go viral. While we certainly do not condone behaviour like this, I’m sure many of us who have been “done over” for money, have felt like doing it, but for most rational people its only a thought. However, this fella certainly went to town during a wrecking spree that is likely to cost a lot more than £600!

If you haven’t already seen it, check out these two shaky mobile phone videos of the incident. The man responsible later fled on foot and as I type this up this morning rumour is spreading that the guys wages had actually been paid into his bank account on the Saturday, but of course did not clear until Monday morning and one can only assume, he had not checked to see it was in there. 

I imagine the guy will be facing a hefty fine for this and attending an anger management course!
