The Global Dispatch reported:

The padlocks to hatches of an aqueduct outside of Boston that supplies drinking water to the metropolitan area were found cut Monday, leading to local concerns after there was a trespassing incident.

Officials say the drinking water does not appear to have been tampered with.

The CBS affiliate is reporting the details, noting that three padlocks were cut from separate access hatches located at approximately half-mile intervals along the aqueduct. Police say there is evidence of an attempt to cut a fourth lock.

State Police are investigating, though they say “there is no evidence of any crime other than vandalism.”

The MWRA says it doesn’t appear anyone tried to tamper with the water supply and there does not appear to be any contamination or changes in water quality.....

If they’re talking about Quabbin Resevoir (the main source of Boston’s drinking water) there was a security incident there just a few weeks ago.Imagine a group of 9th Century knuckledragging pig fornicators...like a dozen Major Hassans...getting access to the drinking water supply of a major Western city...here,in Europe,Japan,etc.

So, all authorities have to do is go back to those muslimes caught messing with the Quabbin a few weeks ago at 2 AM (students, doing some chemical research no doubt), and we’ll get somewhere....

oh, wait... now I remember, those muslimes were not questioned and were just let go.

Not at the Quabbin; it’s in Framingham... must be one of the linked aqueducts between Boston and the Quabbin out west.

No worries. The State Department says there are no active terror cells here. Al Qaeda, that is. We only have Tea Party terror cells.
