I'm kinda glad it happened. These things always nearly
give me a heart attack while on the road.

In Samsun, a cardboard police car that police put on the road to
deter speeders became the target of thieves.  In order to enhance
the believability of the decoy, police added real red lamps.

But last night at the decoy's location, at Karayolu Derbent along
the Samsun-Ordu highway, thieves stole the lamps (!).  Later,
police took 6 individuals, 4 of them children, into custody.
