Phantom paints German's flat
16/02/2007 18:50 - (SA)
Frankfurt - A mystified 45-year-old German called police after he returned to his apartment to discover that the walls had changed colour and someone unknown had cleaned out the refrigerator and polished the mirrors, but left all his valuables untouched.
Wary Frankfurt police wondered on Thursday evening if elves had slapped a coat of white paint over the previous yellow, but then discovered a painter's job ticket lying on the kitchen table...to renovate the next-door apartment.
The landlord had given the wrong key to the painter, who did not notice either that he was in the wrong flat, police said on Friday.
