Police in the northern city of Hanover said they would not press charges after responding to calls made by residents in an apartment block who were woken by a loud crash in the early hours of Saturday.

Get a cheap £5 keyboard, use it till it breaks, unplug it, swing it round by its lead and whack it into a wall.
