Pranksters Fake Axe Murder In Front Of Google Street View Car

It’s one way to get Google to reconsider their street view shot.

“It was in the spur of the moment,” mechanic and prankster Dan Thompson told The Independent. “It seemed like the obvious thing to do so I threw myself on the ground and Gary [Kerr] grabbed a pick-axe handle from the garage. We only had about 20 seconds – it was all we could think of.”

Police ended up investigating the scene, and quickly realized it was a joke.
