Logbook Entry
EYES ONLY - BATTALION MEMO, September 2nd, 1971.
At this stage I don't need to know who is responsible, but I do need you to understand that ANY provocation of these creatures WILL BE an actionable offense. DELIBERATELY luring them with any kind of bait only makes them both more accustomed and more persistent. At this point we have lost literally millions of dollars in valuable parts and equipment. The Colonel being carried away in his portapotty is simply another symptom of lax discipline and DISREGARD for the potential dangers of the Zone. I will not hesitate to report ANY future negligence directly to the Major.

Synopsis
Pickpockets are a bundle of tires with a grabbing claw and floating siren light attached to them. If the Driver takes the car too close to one, it will steal a random part of the car and fly away with it. Its light will also start flashing red once a part has been stolen and will continue to flash until the part is recovered by the Driver.
Pickpockets will also cause physical damage to the Driver if they get too close to one.
Counter
The only counter for this anomaly is to avoid it.
Junction Conditions
Pickpockets become more aggressive and spawn in greater numbers when a junction has the 
Pernicious Pickpockets condition in effect.
