A Bavarian village was flooded by liquid pig manure after a tank containing 240,000 litres of it burst, German police said today.

Sewage rose to 50cm in the courtyards and streets of Elsa after gushing from the tank. "The village was swamped with green-brown liquid and it was pig manure – the mother of all muck," said Rainer Prediger, a police spokesman in the nearby town of Coburg.
