This is too funny. This article appeared in a Columbus Ohio news website today:
Suspicious Bags Found in Northeast Columbus
COLUMBUS -- Several stores were evacuated Thursday after a suspicious briefcase and laptop bag were discovered at a shopping plaza.
The items were discovered next to a parked car. The Giant Eagle and other stores at Stelzer and McCutceon Roads were evacuated.
Members of the Columbus Bomb Squad were called to the scene to inspect the bags.
Officers say the briefcase contained books. The contents of the laptop bag have not been revealed.
No one was hurt.
What isn't said is that the two bags contained Watchtower literature. A sister apparently had her car broken into and the thieves, after breaking the window, took the two bags, one of which looked like a laptop computer bag, but both bags were service bags full of literature. Once they learned that they were only books they discarded the bags at a shopping center parking lot. The sister, after calling the police, said "The bomb squad had to destroy our service bags, but at least we can get the books back." Geez, thanks!
