Thief steals urinal sensor for Mercedes

TAIPEI, Taiwan -- A young mechanic, Wang Chi-sheng, is suspected of stealing a urinal sensor, which he said he planned to use to modify a Mercedes Benz car.

Wang has been accused of trespassing for entering a closed-down gas station restroom and stealing the heat sensors used on the urinals. Police escorting Wang stated that they laughed as they listened to his plan to use the sensors to test out his latest designs for improving a Mercedes Benz car.

The Taiwan Mercedes’ technicians department said the young man’s scheme was “unbelievable,” commenting that “the probability of successfully using a sensor from a public urinal to replace special factory-made sensors was and remains zero.”

What’s more, the technicians explained the thief’s actions are quite dangerous, and could even lead to creating an electric current that leads to the engine, which would cause it to ignite and possibly even explode.
