Divorced Man Takes 'Splitting Up The House' Literally

Stonemason Carefully Measures Before Cutting

By Allison Williams, Staff Writer

SONNEBERG, Germany -- A divorced German took the words "splitting up the house" literally and actually split the house in half.

The 43-year-old man decided to take the divorce settlment into his own hands and took a chain saw to the home.

The man then loaded his half on a truck and drove it to his brother's house, where he has been living in his half-home.

Police said the divorced man -- who works as a stonemason -- carefully measured the house and split it exactly in half, using the chain saw to chop through the roof and walls.

And feelings between the two may not all be bad. Police said the ex-wife apparently donated half of the home's furniture to her former husband so he could furnish his half-house.


confused dang!!

I know, I also read the very same thing here!

I fear this method of divorce settlement is fast becoming quite common in Germany neutral
