Geez, last week we have a bomb scare in our town with REAL BOMBS, then this week, we have people tossing white powdery stuff on produce at a local grocery store at 3:30am in the morning. Read this shit -

HOUGHTON ? Econo Foods in Houghton was evacuated early this morning after an employee reported seeing two suspicious men toss a white substance on produce at 3:30 a.m.
Houghton City Police are looking for the men, who drove away in a car. Workers wrote down the license plate number and called police, according to a night-shift employee, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. The worker said a delivery truck without a license plate closely followed the car. The men in the car appeared to be Arabic, as did two men in the truck, the employee said.
The FBI and a hazardous materials team were expected to comb the 24-hour supermarket for suspicious substances this morning. Authorities declined to say whether the powder will be tested for anthrax.
Since the Sept. 11 terroris attacks, the deadly bacteria has been found in buildings in Washington D.C., New York, New Jersey and Florida. Four people have died of anthrax poisoning.
There have been no new confirmed cases in the last three weeks.
There also have been numerous anthrax scares and hoaxes around the country in recent weeks.
Dr. Gail Shebuski, director of the Western Upper Peninsula District Health Department, said she tried to reassure Econo Foods workers there is ?no way? the substance allegedly put on produce was anthrax.
?There?s an outside chance it could be something else (but) there?s no possible way someone could throw handfuls of anthrax,? she said.
Shebuski did not recommend testing employees for anthrax.
Anthrax infection can be prevented by early antibiotic treatment. Symptoms of anthrax, which resemble the flu, usually occur within seven days and vary depending on how the disease was contracted.
Police blocked off the Econo Foods parking lot with yellow tape at 9 a.m. to stop customers from entering the store.
?We?re doing anything and everything we need to do,? said store manager Brian Sorby. ?Our concern is for the health and welfare of our employees and customers.?

When will this shit stop. I live in a small ass town here and shit like this is happening. Do the rest of you have stupid shit going on in your towns ??
