(snip) – Police said Paul and Durvasula opened an exterior door at the suite entrance at Gate B but did not go inside. Surveillance cameras show them pointing out other areas of the stadium and walking to Gate 5, where they found a folding chair. After sneaking around a couple of other gates, Durvasula allegedly returned to Gate 5 and used the chair to scale the fence, reaching over with his right arm, court documents said. At that point, a Heinz Field security supervisor approached the men, who tried to walk away, and they were taken into custody by Pittsburgh police. Police found a video camera and tripod inside a silver Lexus sports utility vehicle with New York plates and registered to Kumar Paul, 51, of Woodbury, N.Y. It was parked at Art Rooney Avenue at North Shore Drive.
Two bomb dogs were used to check the SUV because of unidentified suspicious items found inside, and they indicated a positive hit for explosives, court documents said. A bomb technician was called in and declared the vehicle was safe, the affidavit said.
Thanks, BTS.
Just two rowdy CMU students making a video for school. Just happen to have Indian-sounding names - but a lot of high-achievers at Carnegie-Mellon have Indian-sounding names. (/sarcasm)
The MSM will make sure that this story dies.

"CMU students nabbed at Heinz Field"
By Craig Smith

Monday, November 6, 2006
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "As captains of mock trial teams at Carnegie Mellon University, Anand Shankar Durvasula and Sudeep Paul learned the inner workings of the courts.
They'll soon put that knowledge to use firsthand after being arrested on charges of trying to sneak into Heinz Field early Sunday and triggering a warning to NFL officials.
Durvasula, 20, of Morgan Hill, Calif., and Paul, 21, of Woodbury, N.Y., were arrested after surveillance cameras showed them trying to get into the stadium at 1:48 a.m. yesterday, according to court documents.
Durvasula was charged with criminal trespass for scaling a fence outside a locked gate at Heinz Field, and Paul faces charges of criminal conspiracy for assisting in the attempted break-in."
