INJURED OFFICER: Officer from district 4 transported to Beth Israel Hospital, human bite to arm, suspect in custody.
Twitter user willcady used the opportunity to ask the police a burning question:
@Boston_Police if that was a zombie bite, would you tell us?
The police, setting the gold standard for government transparency, answered him:
@willcady Yes, absolutely

]]>But will the BPD alert you when the zombies march through nearby suburbs like Somerville?:
Excuse me, Senator, but you seem to have vanilla pudding leaking out of your ear.
]]>Worse comes to worse, I can toss my propane canister out into the middle of the pack and explode it.
]]>Melee weapons FTW.
And then maybe we can bring back insult swordfighting afterward.
]]>And yet they continue to deny the ongoing Mooninite invasion!
]]>No guns will help you then!
]]>The media picking up the story and running with it with "BREAKING NEWS OMG TERRISM IN BOSTON!!!1111!!!1!!!1," whipping everyone into a frenzy before anyone actually knew what the fuck was going on is what caused all the hullabaloo.
]]>Point of interest; I must find the girl in this picture, she may very well be the girl/zombie of my dreams.
]]>Finally, I can sleep much better tonight.
Seriously ... when I saw the headline, I'd wondered if there was something going on in Boston that makes its citizens think monsters are lurking in Beantown. Almost two months ago there had been a serious vampire scare at the famous Boston Latin School, so serious that its headmaster had to issue an announcement that there were no vampires there.
Really. That's not sarcasm. It happened. See [www.agnostic-library.com] (source story [www.boston.com]).

]]>But, dude, those were some scary ass coardboard cutouts.
Scaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrryyyyyy.
]]>Why? Is anyone listening?
]]>@CumaeanSibyl: Oh man, if I get to miss work because of a zombie lockdown in Boston, I will be so happy.
]]>@Laura Northrup: you made the right decision. ALWAYS side with the cute girl pic.
]]>Despite being undead, the policewoman in the picture exceeds the regulations for officer hotness.
]]>Well, that's a load off my mind.
]]>I'm more surprised that there's a perfect picture for this post.
