Police arrested men trying to enter Spain disguised as sheep.
By our Correspondent.
Three men were arrested in Algeria after allegedly attempting to illegally cross into Spain in an unusual disguise.
Reports indicate that the suspects were trying to cross the border by hiding inside a truck carrying livestock.
In an effort to avoid detection, they reportedly wore sheep costumes to blend in with the animals being transported.
The plan apparently failed during a routine inspection when border officials noticed strange movements among the animals.
Some of the “sheep” were said to be walking upright on two legs, which raised suspicion among officers.
Upon closer inspection, authorities discovered that three of the animals were actually men in disguises.
They were quickly removed from the truck and taken into custody.
The suspects are now said to be facing charges related to immigration fraud.
Reports also suggest they could face additional charges, including claims that they disrupted and stepped on livestock while trying to hide.
