Angry husband burns money
June 02, 2005
JERUSALEM: An Israeli man angry with his wife over money matters set fire to three million shekels ($870,000) on the lawn of his affluent suburban home Wednesday, a news website reported.
After reaching the end of his tether in the marital spat, he had opened the family safe, taken out fistsfuls of bank notes, stuffed them in sacks and dragged them outside, said the online edition of Yediot Aharonot.
"In 36 years, I have seen nothing like it," one fireman was quoted as saying after four fire engines hurtled through Rehovot, near Tel Aviv, following reports of someone trying to set fire to his house.
The firemen were confronted by the banknotes smouldering on the lawn.
A police investigation is underway.
