OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- A city crew made a little mistake while painting a road in Oakland.

The letters "SOTP," painted on the roadway at the intersection of MLK and Arlington Avenue, was pointed out on Twitter by Oakland resident Ian Gordon.

Oakland Police Lt. Chris Bolton responded on Twitter, admitting that it's a "picture classic" that can be fixed if it's reported to seeclickfix.com, a website where citizens can report problems in the neighborhoods and see them get fixed.
