Crude end for man who drowned in stolen oil
A man drowned in the crude oil he stole from a pipeline in Xiangyang, Hubei province, early this week.
Cao, 32, wanted to steal the oil after learning a pipeline passed through his courtyard. But he was knocked down by the black gold as it spewed from the rupture he caused with his shovel 2 m below the surface of his yard.
