Teen Tries to Steal Olympic TorchHere’s some more proof that the world is full of nutbags.

A teenager has been arrested in Gravesend, Kent (England) after he tried to snatch the Olympic torch from a runner as it passed through town.

The teen apparently charged at runner Anna Skora, but fortunately he was immediately swarmed by police.

The 17-year-old was arrested shortly thereafter.

Witnesses say the teen was shouting “Allah Hu Akbar” as he tried to steal the torch.
