Hamburg - (Medium Rare): Billionaire hotel owner Dieter Bock has died after gagging on a steak sandwich ordered from room service at one of his flagship hotels.
The body of the 71 year-old proprietor of the Bristol Palin in Berlin hotel, was found by Atlantic Hotel chambermaids slumped over a side-salad.
A preliminary postmortem examination says Bock may have found the meet (sic) 'a delicacy too hard to swallow'.
Named by his parents in recognition of the Atkins Diet Diet-er Bock also owned the Cravenbunch Hotel in Frankfurt and the 007 Tomorrow Never Fries movie hotel the Atlantic.
"What the chambermaids were doing slumped over a side-order of coleslaw is beyond speculation," a Hamburger forensics department sauce commented.
