A clever thief in Denmark really cleaned up at a jewelry store.
The burglar used a vacuum cleaner to make off with close to 19-thousand dollars in jewelry.
According to police, the thief drilled a small hole in the window of the gold and silver store -- then stuck the tip of the vacuum's hose in through it- the vacumn then sucked out the goods.
He was able to slip the hose in -- without triggering the store's alarm.
The store's owner says it was ``terrible'' -- but at the same time she says it was ``funny because who would have thought of doing it that way?''
