Oh crap, they're reporting he's got C-4. This will not end well.

The Post Office doesn't need this kind of publicity. Please stop.

According to police on the scene, the man had five hostages and five pounds of C-4, a common plastic explosive, strapped to his wheelchair.

5 hostages strapped to his wheelchair, this sounds bad.

FTFA The hospital, which recently completed an emergency room renovation, was on Code Green, Deaton said, meaning it was preparing for the potential for mass casualties or injuries.

I thought things like that were usually reserved for you know, the color red.

Why didn't someone sneak up behind him and just lock the breaks on his wheels? Call it 'damage control'.

No joke i be this guy is like everyone else in the fact that every time he goes in there only 1 person out of the 5-6 stalls are open, the line is at the door, and no one else is even trying to help speed the line up.

Okay so if I was withouy use of my legs/colon/penis etc I could do some crazy shiat too. I always think why dont people with illnesses that are going to kill them soon do more crime? If I had cancer and was going to die I'd do some crazy s___ you'd better believe.

Dude should be careful. He might blow his leg off.

I hope he walks away from this unscathed.

if c-4 is so common why can't i get it at homedepot, loews or walmart?

Just be sure to buy the defuser kit, it speeds up the disarming process.

Sigh... I submitted this w/ a different headline. I used to live
in Wytheville back when hubby #1 and I first got married. It's a
very nice, rural town of about 7 - 8,000 people.

His demands were for pizza? People are doing extreme things for a box of pizza these days.
 
2009-12-23 07:01:00 PM
So is he in there, spinning in circles, claiming if he goes below 5 mph, the chair will blow up?
 
2009-12-23 07:01:08 PM
If he gets caught and sent to trial, no judge in his right mind will ever let him walk.
 
2009-12-23 07:01:22 PM
There should have been a red flag raised.

If he's not careful, he might resemble pizza soon

Greeeeat. Right after that TSA document is leaked saying they don't need to check wheelchairs.

Way to f*ck it up for everyone one-leg.

C4 by itself is not explosive. It would burn like Sterno. It needs to be encased to be explosive.

I used to take apart claymore mines in Vietnam and use the C4 to heat food.

He will probably do less time if they nail him with kidnapping/hostage taking than if they try to say he wanted to rob the post office. That is like a 25 year sentence. Do it in a 7-Eleven and you would be out in less than 5.

A Red Alert usually means Fire
Orange typically refers to mass casualties
and Green (at least my hospital) means Chemical Spill / MAZMAT
