Drivers steal €10k in cash lorry spill

Drivers in Italy have reportedly stolen thousands of euros after a lorry carrying €2 million (£1.67 million) overturned on a motorway in southern Italy.

Before police arrived to deal with the crash in Foggia, motorists had stopped and apparently made off with over €10,000 in one and two euro coins, Reuters reports.

The lorry was transporting the change from the Italian mint to local banks. The lorry's driver and its one passenger were reportedly injured in the crash.
