Pink Street Lights Deter Loitering Youths ... by Making Their Acne Look Bad!

Tired of gangs of loitering youths detering customers at a local shopping district, the city of Cardiff, Wales, decided to call in the big guns - the big, pink, glowing ones:

Anti-social behaviour on a Cardiff estate could be tackled by the installation of pink lighting to show up teenagers' acne.

The idea would be to deter yobs at a parade of shops in the city's Fairwater district where five arrests have been made and 18 Asbos issued in six weeks. [...]

The glow from lighting is said to unflattering to teenage complexions.

Apparently, this is what to do when weaponizing Mozart isn't enough: Link - via News of the Weird
