German Police Officer Loses Appeal After Stealing Cheese from Accident Scene

A German police officer, fired for stealing cheddar cheese from an accident scene, lost his appeal against dismissal. The officer was accused of taking the cheese from a truck, worth 554 euros, and keeping some for himself. The court ruled that he'd kept parcels for himself or family, despite the cheese's spoiled condition. The officer denied liking cheddar, arguing the cheese was worthless.
