A theft prevention device, particularly useful for discouraging theft of hood ornaments and other articles on the exteriors of automobiles, includes a bag or pouch of fabric material. The bag is sized to fit over the article to be protected, and may have a drawstring at its neck to enable it to tightly engage the article. In one embodiment an oily liquid material is soaked into the bag, such that anyone seeking to tamper with the protected article will touch the bag and make contact with the liquid material. The liquid material contains a strong skin irritant which does not injure the skin but which causes a burning sensation on the hands of the attempted thief. On the outside of the bag there may be printed a warning to discourage thieves from even attempting theft of the bag's contents. In another embodiment the bag includes a liquid reservoir which squirts a liquid at an intended thief when the bag is grabbed by the thief. The liquid in the reservoir may be a fragrance oil with a very obnoxious and lasting odor. |
