Finally somthing to pass the time, looking out of the window down at a bench with a box on it. Just waiting for the bomb bot to come in and hopefully blow up


12.30pm Thursday November 16, 2006


Police have cordoned off Shortland St in central Auckland after a suspicious container was spotted on a park bench.

A passerby alerted police that a large silver box had been left unattended. The member of the public kept it in his view until officers arrived.

Traffic was being diverted away from Shortland St to Princes St and occupants of a car park building, a New Zealand Post Shop and a nearby apartment building were being evacuated.

The Fire Service and Ambulance services were on standby nearby.

The Defence Force Bomb Disposal Unit has been called out to attend.

police have been there for about an hour now. So that must have been another thing this morning. At least they are working.
I was just thinking of telling the cops its a box full of doughnuts, I'm sure it will be open in no time.

Speaking of which, the bomb squad still haven't turned up, how busy can they really be???
