Police In 90 Minute Standoff With Cardboard Cutout

Posted by samzenpus on from the better-safe-than-sorry dept.

Authorities say a cardboard figure of a person inside a Somerset County bank kept police at bay for 90 minutes. Police sealed off the area to traffic and evacuated residents in three nearby apartment buildings in an attempt to save them from the cardboard menace. The SWAT team was deployed after the cutout refused to answer repeated inquiries as to its demands.
