FOOL RESCUED FROM SANDY’S DAMAGE ARRESTED FOR LOOTING

Rescuers in Philadelphia pulled a man from the wreckage of a collapsed building on Monday – and then promptly arrested him for looting.
The abandoned three-story building in the north of the city had been reduced to rubble after Superstorm Sandy battered the east coast of the United States. Firefighters working to make the building safe didn’t think anyone was inside, until they heard someone crawling out of the rubble.
After helping him to safety, police officers arrested him for disorderly conduct on the suspicion that he had crawled in to the building, located on Cumberland Street, looking for things to loot. The exact cause of the building’s collapse is still unknown but Philadelphia has been buffeted by 50mph gusts as a result of the storm.

It came as thousands of National Guard troops were mobilised to prevent looting sprees on homes and shops in New York and Long Island.

Scores of trouble makers took to Twitter threatening to ransack stores and burgle abandoned homes as Sandy passed.

It prompted the New York National Guard to deploy 1,175 troops in New York City, Long Island and the Hudson Valley to maintain law and order.
