A woman in Somalia has held up a large truck at gunpoint, ordered the driver off and searched it for explosives.
The vehicle was the same model as the one used in the recent massive truck bombing in the capital Mogadishu which killed more than 350 people.
The woman, in the central town of Abudwak, said people were terrified when they saw the lorry approaching so she decided to make sure it was safe.
A BBC correspondent in Somalia says many people have developed a fear of the model of truck used in the bombing.
