VIDEO at link Police evacuated the offices of Fox 45 Baltimore Thursday afternoon after a man lit a car on fire in the parking lot, walked into the building’s lobby and threatened to set off a bomb, the station reported. The man appeared to be wearing a bulky suit. The news station reports he made the bomb threat to a security guard in the lobby. Firefighters rushed to the scene and extinguished the fire. According to the station’s security guard an unidentified suspect threatened to “blow up” the building. Outside, a parked sedan was burning from its gas tank.Evacuating staff spotted a man standing in the vestibule attached to the station lobby. A 25-year-old man who threatened to blow up a Baltimore Fox TV station Thursday and then was shot by police did not have a bomb, but a device that was chocolate bars held together by wires, according to the Baltimore Police Department. The suspect had refused to cooperate with officers, police spokesman T.J. Smith said. When he walked out of the building, he was wearing a white panda suit, a surgical mask and sunglasses before being shot by three officers. A bomb robot then scanned him for nearly an hour before police removed his clothing, picked him up and carried him into an armored van. Crews transferred him to an ambulance minutes later. Smith said he was in serious, but stable condition at a local hospital. Smith added the suspect was not armed with a bomb, but with candy bars wrapped in plastic. He said the chocolate candy bars were wrapped together with a "motherboard," as well as wires in the suspect's shirt.

So what’s his name, Mr. Big Time News Reporter?
Alfred E Newman.
No, “Mr. Snickers”.
“he was wearing a white panda suit, a surgical mask and sunglasses... with a device that was chocolate bars held together by wires”.
This guy was perfectly normal until he was forced to watch a repeating loop of a Cruz/Fiorina interview.
LOL ! Thanks.. I needed that :D
What I don’t understand is HOW can he WALK out of the building after beingSHOT # TIMES by police?
Not a panda, looks like a hedgehog.
He was shot outside?
Investigators did not reveal the name of the suspect.
Oh. I see. If the police don't tell a news organization who they've just arrested for threatening to blow up the news organization's building, that's it. There's nothing more that can be done. As soon as the police don't want some reporters to know something, they stop right there and meekly go away.
The guy sounds “Mad as a Hatter.”
Now that I think about it the panda suit was a nice touch.
Actually, I heard it was ultra-low frequency signals beamed from the alien creature perched atop Trump’s melon to the ears of the perp’s onesie.
He looked like a white guy if that is why the name is so important to you. Did not look like he was middle eastern either.
Said he had a thumb drive that contained information like those in the Panama Papers that were released recently about foreign leaders who are banking money in offshore accounts.
Patience, more should be coming forth shortly, and personally I would rather accurate reporting be the norm instead of conjecture not based upon facts like they so often are.
DEATH...
by chocolate..!
That’s the way ta go...
...and I heard that it was Beck trying to communicate with Cruz and his latest....
Lol, Beck *is* one crazy SOB!
If it were a Caucasian male tea party person we would know his name
Ahh... the only conjecture I see is coming from you:
He looked like a white guy if that is why the name is so important to you. Did not look like he was middle eastern either.An incorrect theory. The interval between when they take him into custody and when they release his name can be used to sanitize his on-line footprint. That's my concern.
I merely pointed out that the MSM is sometimes interested in digging for things the government doesn't want to divulge, and sometimes not.
