A Tel-Aviv man has been arrested on arson charges after allegedly torching another man’s motorbike – because he would not hand over his pet squirrel!
Anton Surami, 25, saw the victim, whose name has been withheld, carrying the squirrel in a bum-bag and tried to snatch it. However the man stopped Surami and got his pet back, only to receive a threatening call later in the day in which he was told his house would be burned down if he did not hand over the squirrel.
Scared of losing his home, the man complied, only for Surami to allegedly torch his bike some two hours later.
