You couldn't make this up !
Live on the phone from the CNN Editor in Chief in Istanbul:
Coup soldiers land in a helicopter in the parking lot of the CNN building.
The soldiers take over the building and order the anchor of the air at gunpoint.
The building gets surrounded by numerous pro-government supporters.
The pro-government police arrive and arrest the coup soldiers.
The police are now protecting the coup soldiers in the building from the demonstrators outside.
Elsewhere live coverage of coup soldiers being frog-marched off 2:1 by armed "police" in irregular clothes.
