Googled, then arrested

A simple Google search of Michal Preclik's name turns up an Interpol wanted poster from his native Czech Republic. So where was he arrested? In a US maximum-security prison, where he was not an inmate, but a guard.

Preclik had worked at the prison in the central US state of Nebraska for a year and his arrest came just two months after officials at Tecumseh State Correctional Institution promoted the 32-year-old to corporal. "This is just unbelievable that the state of Nebraska is hiring international criminals," said state Sen. Heath Mello. "Who's minding the store?"
