Being beaten to death because of a church bomb threat. A man who was angry by a mob nearly died at a church in southern Turkey after threatening to blow up the place. The police must shoot only to drag the man out of the crowd.
According to Turkish news agency Anadolu, the incident occurred during Friday prayers at Sabanci church. A man climbed onto the podium, yanked the Muslim preacher microphone and shouted, "I have a bomb on me."
Later, the man also lifted his shirt to reveal the cable dangling from a white bra and continued to confirm that there was an explosive inside.
Many people moved to the main door out of fear while others rushed to grab the man, pulled out and beat him.
Police were called to the scene and had to shoot only to pull the man out of the angry crowd.
The man was later identified as Mahmoud K. (33), a local resident, believed to have neurological problems. He was arrested and taken to the local police station.
Turkey has yet to be shocked after the bloody bombing at Istanbul's Ataturk Airport on June 28 left at least 44 people dead and more than 200 injured.
