Words for the wise from the mouth of a fool.

Police have apologised to an artist after raiding his home when an artwork made out of bacon was mistaken for a human head.

Exciting lede for that story. Of course, my favorite part is two paragraphs later:

They had been acting on a tip off from a criminal who had broken into the artist's home just days earlier.

That's right: even if you were to actually commit a crime behind a locked door, you still might be reported by a burglar. Criminals beware!

UPDATE: After two emails on the topic, proof that lede is not misspelled.
