These crafty thieves trying to steal fuel from a tour bus got a nasty surprise when they accidentally put their siphoning tube in the outlet valve for the sewage tank.

The Laverton police chief, Sergeant Heath Soutar, said in this regard: "We can surely deduce that their retreat was very hasty, given the "bitter taste" left in the mouth of whoever had attempted the robbery."

Not surprisingly, the Laverton police have absolutely zero interest in recovering the ... stolen goods!
