  1. “The suspect’s condition is unknown at this time.”

    Extremely stupid, or mind controlled.

    Take your pick.

  2. Looks like the controlled media got a crazy enema from this dude.
    They had a mass evacuation at work.
    Sounds kind of messy.
    I always loved and kind of miss those firedrills at work.
    You actually had an excuse to stand around and have a smoke and talk to your coworkers and get paid for it.
