A New Orleans area truck owner apparently rigged the inside of his truck with a flash-bang stun grenade in order to deter would-be car thieves. Security camera footage showed the technique already managed to scare off at least two thieves who attempted to break into his truck.
Video of the security camera footage, which has gone viral on social media, showed a car drove up alongside the white pick-up truck and a man got out from the passenger door. The passenger and apparent car thief looked inside the white pickup truck before smashing in the driver’s side window and leaning into the front seat. Seconds later a bright flash could be seen inside the truck, before the car thief jumped back out of the truck and ran back to the suspect car before it drove away.
The unnamed pick-up truck owner spoke to FOX 8 in New Orleans. He said he had grown fed up after repeated break-ins of his and other vehicles in the area.
“To see him like gleefully walk up and just smash my eighth window in the past couple months and jump in and then you know to see the detonation go off and his reaction,” the truck owner told the news station. “I don’t want this guy to die for what he did, but I don’t want him to just be able to smash and grab and run away.”
Flash-bangs are non-lethal grenades that produce a bright flash and a loud bang.
