            The patient is armed and dangerous. 

In Denizli, a policeman wore his gun when he entered the MR
(magnetic resonance) room at the Denizli State Hospital in connection
with the treatment of a relative and (somehow!) the gun got magnetically
stuck to the MR machine.  The incident occurred yesterday at about
1800 hours. 

When the hospital staff was unable to free the gun, the fire department
was called.  Firefighters determined that the gun's safety was open so
MR experts were called in from Izmir to try to remove the gun from
the MR machine.

                      A boy and his weapon. 

Onur Y. lives in Ortahisar, Trabzon.  On 3 December 2016, Onur Y.
stopped his former girlfriend Z.E. (29) on the street and, using his
pitbull dog as a threat, forced Z.E. into an abandoned building.  Z.E.
managed to escape and reported Onur Y. to the police, who took him
into custody. 

The public prosecutor charged that Onur Y. had used the pitbull as
a weapon and the court in Trabzon agreed.  Onur Y. was sentenced
to 6 years in jail.
