Two nineteen-year-olds from the town of Olomouc in Moravia, apparently weren’t thinking - at all - during a visit by the Czech president last Monday, June 14. Hoping to see Václav Klaus from a distance, they climbed onto a rooftop and used a scope from an air rifle to watch Mr Klaus meeting locals in a nearby square. But it wasn’t long before they were noticed by bodyguards and plains clothes officers and consequently apprehended and taken for questioning. Both are lucky the incident had a happy ending.
