Taipei police cars carry teddy bears to comfort traumatised kids


TAIPEI (Bernama): Teddy bears are now part of the standard kit in Taipei police patrol cars, to help bring comfort to children in traumatic and stressful situations, reported Taiwan’s Central News Agency (CNA) according to the city's Police Department.

In a press release earlier this week, the department said the new policy was initiated by its Commissioner Chen Jia Chang, after he learned about the type of gear Dutch police were carrying in their patrol cars, which includes teddy bears.
