A New Orleans man’s attempt at a creative car theft deterrent backfired dramatically, leaving his truck riddled with bullets instead of just being avoided by would-be burglars.
According to local reporting from WWL-TV, the man placed a life-sized mannequin in a Michael Myers mask inside his Toyota pickup truck parked near his home in the University section of the city, hoping the eerie Halloween horror movie villain would scare off thieves targeting vehicles in the area.
