The truck was locked, had no logos, and the cops didn't push them into stealing from it. Thus it isn't entrapment
However, they placed it in an area where they knew people are desperately poor and regularly have to turn to illicit activities to make ends meet. Most truck drivers know this and don't park their shit outside for this reason. To anyone older, this would look like an obvious setup. That's why they targeted kids.
