Very Expensive Bottle – level 3

10-01-2018 15:00

Someone stole the world’s most expensive bottle of vodka, worth $1.3 million, from a bar in Denmark’s capital of Copenhagen. The police said that it is too early to tell if the perpetrator broke in or used a key.

People say that the bottle is made of 3 kilograms of gold and an equivalent amount of silver. There are some diamonds on it, too. The owner of the bar said that the bottle was uninsured and a Russian businessman loaned it.

Difficult words: perpetrator (somebody who carries out something illegal or bad), or used a key (this means that the person who stole the bottle may have worked in the bar).
