August 4, 2009 -- Violence in Times Square
<The following is the cover story of the New York Times>
Violence erupted last night as an unidentified madman began raving atop the iPod billboard on Times Square, signalling an all-out riot as creatures appeared to emerge from the shadows and attack random citizens.
Eyewitness reports vary on the nature of the creatures, with some even claiming them to be demonic in nature. However, one fact is confirmed by witnesses aross the boards: apparent mutants in the crowd began lashing violently with superhuman abilities.
I saw this one big guy kicking someone in the face, one traumatized tourist said, At first I thought it was one of the creatures the guy attacked but I looked again and it was just a little girl. Then the guy started jumping around like a giant frog. It was so scary.
Multiple eyewitnesses also claim to have heard what sounded like a bolt of thunder called down admist the chaos, and several horrified onlooks report that, One woman was being attacked by severed body parts.
The chaos continued until police arrived to apprehend the madman who seemed to urge the fighting on, who at this time remains unidentified. First response units arrived promptly to attend to the injured innocent, however all of the aggressive mutants appeared to flee the scene in the confusion. Although much is still unclear at this point, many believe that the root cause of the riot was mutant-on-mutant violence, with innocent tourists and New Yorkers caught in the crossfire.
The NYPD and FBI are currently launching a full scale investigation to find the shadowy culprits as well as the dangerous mutants. These violent individuals will be found and brought to justice, a media spokesman for the FBI assured, For now, citizens should remain vigilant and wary of possible threats. Anyone suspicious of mutant activity should contact the police immediately.
The public reaction has been immediate and mostly unified. As of 8 o'clock this morning, the New York Times has been flooded with e-mails from eyewitness confirming these reports as well as offering pictures and video footage captured by cell phone. These images will become available as their authenticity is verified. Anti-mutant activists are already lining up outside of police stations, urging officers to Get the Monsters Off Our Streets, as one picketer's sign read.
The mayor's office is expected to release a statement soon, and a press conference is likely to follow. Many are seeing the events of last night as a clear cry for passing of the Mutant Registration Act.
The mayor began receiving e-mail and phone calls from concerned constituents, and rest assured he will be addressing these concerns regarding the mutants that are continuing to endanger innocent people, a spokesman for the mayor said.
