Thanks to Bruce Schneier, who reminds us of it.

I'm not sure whether this is alarming, hilarious, or both (or neither).

A worker at a Downtown building who was using a pellet gun with a scope to
scare pigeons prompted a massive police response that led to the shutdown of
several blocks this afternoon.

Dozens of motorcycle and special response officers responded to the area.

The Fort Pitt Tunnels inbound were shut down temporarily.

The Port Authority was forced to reroute buses around the area.

People in some buildings were told to stay inside while those in others were
evacuated.
