    Previously known as Kim Schmitz, Dotcom, was arrested at his luxury New Zealand mansion on 20 January; he was found locked in a panic room which contained a gun cabinet.

    That's were you want the gun cabinet to be. Who designs a panic room with guns on the outside? The zombies could learn to use them?
