Rodent to ruin
Pair wreck house looking
for a rat...but never find it
Flaw plan ... boards are up in the lounge but no sign of the rat
A BARMY couple wrecked their house looking for a rat — and never found it.
They caused £5,500 worth of damage to the rented home.
Terror ... Fay

Defiance ... rat remained at large
Drunk ex-soldier Gary Taylor tore out a fireplace, ripped up lino and pulled up floorboards — but could not find the rodent.
Taylor, 42, even smashed up concrete foundations in the cellar in Rochdale, Gtr Manchester, after terrified Leanne Fay, 38, claimed she spotted a rat last April.
Taylor was jailed for three months after admitting criminal damage.
Fay was given a suspended three-month sentence at Bolton Crown Court after admitting the same charge.
Judge William Morris said: "This is the most extraordinary case."
Debasement ... search for the rat leaves the cellar in a terrible state
Gone suite ... there's no trace of rodent in trashed bathroom either
