Cranky farmer gets smart revenge on trespassers
nine.com.au staff
A Croatian farmer fed up with marketgoers parking on his land has come up with a smart way to exact his revenge.
Paul Bedeković had been warning visitors to the Zagreb flea market every Sunday not to park on his corn field and snapped last week when he saw 50 cars lined up on the fertile ground, news website 24 Sata reports.
The livid farmer hopped in his tractor and can be seen in video ploughing a ditch behind the cars, trapping them in their makeshift carpark.

Outraged drivers called police but the officers were powerless to act against the farmer as it was his property, according to 24 Sata.
Eventually peace was made and the farmer was convinced to level the ground and let the drivers out.
