Crazy For Notoriety
I seem to be repeating myself, but what kind of nutcase goes out and pretends to have a bomb on a train after the couple weeks we have seen in the UK? This kind apparently:
Police arrested a man following a bomb scare that emptied Pennsylvania Station and disrupted service on Amtrak, commuter trains and city subways for about an hour.
The busy commuter hub was evacuated after the man allegedly threw a backpack at an Amtrak agent and said it was a bomb, said Marissa Baldeo, a spokeswoman for New York City Transit. The threat was a false alarm, and service on all lines was soon restored.Police arrested the man, Raul Claudio, 43, on Sunday, according to Manhattan District Attorney’s office spokeswoman, Barbara Thompson
Darwin was right, you know.
