                             Ultimate hood-surfing.

On 1 April in Aziziye quarter of Düzce, A.O.Ş. wanted to take his 14-

year-old child from his ex-wife S.Ş., who objected.  Nevertheless,

A.O.Ş. forced the child into his car, at which time S.Ş. jumped onto 

the car's front hood to try to stop it.  However, A.O.Ş. did not stop the

car, and disregarding S.Ş. sprawled on the front hood, he went on his

way. (!) 

Onlookers tried to stop the car but A.O.Ş. ran them over.  Police set up

roadblocks along the anticipated route of travel and stopped A.O.Ş. in

Sakarya's Hendek district.  At this point, S.Ş. fell off the hood and was

injured and taken to Hendek State Hospital for treatment.  She had held

onto the hood for 40 kilometers. (!)  A.O.Ş. was taken into custody by

police.
