A little funny post for you people.
"Detroit-based WXYZ-TV recently donated an expensive PlayStation 2 videogame system to the Detroit Police Department´s 7th Precinct with instructions to deliver it to a deserving poor child. Unfortunately, the child—Robert Edwards, 11—came to the precinct Tuesday with word that there was no PlayStation 2 in the box, and instead it contained a tracking device, along with a note telling him to call a telephone number to receive the actual game system.
"I was mad," Robert said Wednesday evening. "I had to take it back to the police." But by late Wednesday, police said, Channel 7 had given him his PlayStation 2. When questioned about the mixup, Channel 7 officials told police they had received a tip that gifts donated for distribution by precincts are taken home by officers. The device in the box was part of the station´s investigation.
Assistant Chief Marvin Winkler was less than thrilled with the investigation. "I know it´s their job to report the news, but it´s not their duty to try to entrap us," he said. "Are they that desperate for ratings?"
