FISHERMEN CATCH NAKED FUGITIVE

Two Australian fishermen were laying crab traps outside Darwin in Australia’s Northern Territory on Sunday when they heard a cry for help. Cam Faust and Kev Joiner navigated their boat over to the yelling and found Luke Voskresensky holding onto mangrove branches, buck naked, filthy and covered in insect bites. He was up in the branches because there were crocodiles in the water. He told them that he’d been living off of snails. The pair brought Voskresensky aboard their boat, gave him a beer — and a pair of shorts — and brought him to shore, where they called an ambulance. Later on, Faust went to visit Voskresensky in the hospital, where he learned the man they rescued was handcuffed to the bed with two cops babysitting him. Voskresensky had allegedly jumped bail on an armed robbery case and removed a location-tracking ankle monitor days prior to being found in the mangrove swamp.
* Fishermen don’t usually catch the one that got away.
* “Whatja use for bait, mate?” “Beer.” Of course.
* I want to hear the part where the crocodiles jumped him and took his clothes.
* It’s not often you almost win a Darwin award right outside of Darwin.
