Protect your health & well-being with pickles!
In Seyhan, Adana, an individual wearing a surgical mask and a hooded
coat entered a market, took a bottle of perfume off the shelf and
came to the cashier. As he paid for the perfume, the individual
suddenly took out a knife, threatened cashier Nur Sima Y. and told
her to open the cash register. Nur Sima hanım refused and tried to
ward off the robber with her feet, bracing herself with her arms
against the cash register.
Meanwhile, market worker Ercan T. (42) tried unsuccessfully to
intervene with his mop (!). However, the quick-thinking Ercan T.
grabbed a jar of pickles (!) and threw it at the robber, hitting him in
the head. Thus dissuaded from his robbery attempt, the thief fled.
Splat!
Police determined that the robber was Caner Aydın (28), who after
escaping had thrown the knife into the Seyhan River before taking a
'dolmuş' (collective taxi) to his grandmother's house and then to his
own, where he was taken into custody in a police raid.
In his statement Aydın explained that "I went into the market, showed
the cashier my knife and demanded 50 TL (about 60 cents). When the
market worker hit me in the head with the can of pickles I
congratulated (!) him for his marksmanship and fled."
Seyhan is part of Adana city.
