SPAIN -- What seems like an unusual bust in the U.S. was not so alarming for police in Spain.

They had pulled over a car for driving erratically and found hundreds of oranges stuffed inside the car - four tons in all.

Theft of the fruit happens often in Spain, when orange prices get too high.

Orange you glad these thefts don't happen here?
