Hanoi Police Paint Criminals Guilty
From Times Wire Reports
Police in Vietnam’s capital have armed themselves with paintball guns to brand and track robbers and illegal motorbike racers.
The guns will be used to pelt thieves and racers with red, yellow and green dyes, said Tran Quoc Hung, administrative head of police in Hanoi. The guns, with a range of 33 feet, will help police track fast-moving riders who could otherwise dart unnoticed into a sea of other bikes.
