Bank security plans found in trash

A Berlin hairdresser noticed that somehow the detailed security plans for a newly-renovated bank's vault ended up in his garbage can. It's not clear how the plans ended up there; Bundesbank is across town from where the hairdresser lives. After the plans were discovered, German tabloid Bild ran them on their front page. From Deutsche Welle:
The plans detailed "floor thickness, movement detector placements, doors, passageways and barred gates" reported mass circulation daily Bild.

"These plans are secret," was witten at the top of the page in bold capitals...

"We will check to see how this could have happened," (the bank's spokesperson Albrecht) Sommer was quoted as saying. "Right now we have to make sure no more worksite plans are out there."
