Man lives in train locker 德男子在火車站置物櫃生活了9年

A pint-size down and out had made his home in a left luggage locker in a railway station.

Every evening, former art student Mike Kirsch, 29, slips into locker 501 at Dusseldorf station and beds down for the night.

At just 24 by 20 inches his railway residence may be handy for commuting but it's certainly more bijou than palatial.

And even though he's just eight stone, nine pounds and 5ft 6 inches, it's still a squeeze for its occupant.

Mike hit the road after breaking up with his student girlfriend 10 years ago and quickly settled on the locker as a secure, dry bed for the night.

But now efficient German railway authorities are trying to remove him and have accused him of a breach of the peace.

Now Kirsch is facing nine months in prison but said: "Who knows. Maybe I will get another chance."(Ananova.com)
