Police in Zhejiang province spotted an exhausted man walking on the expressway between Taizhou and Jinhua last week, and on questioning him, learnt that he had been walking for a week.

The man said his wallet was stolen minutes before he was to start his journey to meet a relative on Nov 21.

Since he had no money left, he decided to walk, and had covered 150 km on foot when cops found him.

Officers gave the man some money for bread, water and a bus ticket to Jinhua.
