When a traffic policeman went missing in the Czech Republic his superiors quickly became concerned and started an intensive search for the man. A media campaign resulted in his photo being used in the press and also on TV, along with appeals for any information about his whereabouts.

His employers were understandably somewhat less than happy and the traffic policeman may have grounds to regret his over-appreciation of the Czech Republic’s fine quality beers.
