Raiders make off with bull semen

Bull semen worth about £12,000 has been stolen from a farm building in south west Scotland.

The incident happened near Brydekirk in Dumfries and Galloway some time between Sunday and Thursday.

The semen is stored in a purpose-built flask containing liquid nitrogen in order to keep it at a fixed temperature.

A police spokesman said the flask was the only item taken during the raid on the farm.

The specimens were stored in an outbuilding. It was noticed on Thursday that they had been taken.

The flask contained about 400 "straws" of semen.

Gotta admire a criminal group with flair and spunk.

I dunno.  They didn't appear to have any of their own.   :fuelfire:

Are you sure you don't mean paying to give it away?

Well, only if you count stuff like dinner, jewellery, cash, a trip to the movies etc etc.  :uhsure:

Is this the plot of the next Indiana Jones movie?  Something to do with the Minotaur?  Minos?
