Hey guys,
Was heading home from work and heard a bunch of gunshots and crazy loud sirens near 8th and Maple. Sounded pretty wild. Anyone know what's going down?
Checked the news but nada so far. Any info would be awesome! Stay safe out there everyone.

Just told my kids to stay indoors. Whatever it is, I hope it gets resolved soon. This city is getting scarier every day.

It's really looking like shit's about to hit the fan, huh? I know people joke about how the city's gang infested, and there's like reports of Coil's mercs fighting the Empire Downtown from time to time, but man, the shitshow recently makes me feel like things are about to get worse

@Anonym0use the girl apparently 'escaped custody'
reported that the crazy bitch attacked Hookwolf in his home earlier too, lots of damages and some deaths. Can't believe there are actually people who wanted to suppoer that serial killer after the hospital incident
@CapeWatcher007 someone say GANG WAR? how many deaths have happnd just recently? we havnt had blatant, open fighting like this in a while... makes me scared to even leave the house

@K1mmyK It's because people just want to be edgy and 'different', probably doesn't help that the girl looks... aesthetically pleasing. Fuck, look at the sickos that gush over the siberian, disgusting

Breaking News: Villain Silver Escapes Custody
Sarah Jenkins, Brockton Bay Herald
January 29, 2011
BROCKTON BAY — The escape of notorious mass murderer Silver from PRT custody has plunged authorities into a state of heightened alert. The incident occurred late last night at the PRT headquarters, leaving the community shaken and law enforcement scrambling to contain the fallout.
Silver, now infamous for her unpredictable behaviour and formidable powers, successfully evaded security measures and disappeared from her cell. Director Emily Piggot of the PRT confirmed the escape and issued a call for vigilance.
"We are actively pursuing all leads and taking every measure to ensure the safety of our citizens," Director Piggot stated in a brief press briefing, echoing sentiments, if not repeating words, just expressed a few days ago. "We urge the public to report any sightings or suspicious activity immediately. While there is no immediate cause for alarm, we encourage everyone to remain cautious."
Despite the Director's assurances, residents are rightfully concerned.
Silver's escape has reignited discussions about the effectiveness of Parahuman containment and law enforcement's preparedness to handle such incidents. Authorities are currently conducting a thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding the escape and are seeking the public's cooperation.
"We are committed to apprehending Silver swiftly and ensuring justice is served," Director Piggot affirmed. "We are deploying all available resources and collaborating closely with local law enforcement to safeguard the community. While we understand the concerns, it's crucial for everyone's safety to remember that Silver is extremely dangerous. If encountered, do not approach her. Contact authorities immediately."
Residents are advised to exercise vigilance and promptly report any suspicious activities to the police. However, repeated assurances of safety have done little to assuage the anxieties of a city still grappling with the aftermath of Silver's atrocities.
"I can't believe this is happening," remarked one resident. "It's like villains keep slipping through the cracks, and we're left wondering if we're safe."
Similar sentiments echoed across the community.
"I have faith in the heroes and the PRT," another resident added. "I think they're doing their best, but it's hard to feel safe when crazy psychopaths like Silver keep running around free. How long before it's your family who's hurt?"
A question on everyone's mind.
There were many others, however, that expressed frustration with what they perceive as evasive responses.
"They're just repeating the same old lines," said one resident. "They always say the same thing. It's pathetic. Where's the actual, hard facts? We're not children. We deserve to know what's really going on."
"Stop giving us PR washed answers," demanded another irate resident. "She just said a bunch of words without really telling us anything. This is our lives that are on the line! If she wants us to stay calm, then she needs to actually give us a reason to trust them."
Indeed, the escape has underscored significant concerns regarding the security and management of Parahuman threats in custody.
As the investigation progresses, Brockton Bay remains on edge, grappling with the unsettling reality of a dangerous criminal on the loose, and demanding answers from those tasked with protecting the city.

@K1mmyK don't wanna derail the thread too much, but wtf. I thought I was imagining it, but I went bck to what the PRT Director said when Silver first appeared and it's practically the same thing... how am I supposed to feel comforted by that
I know this is often said jokingly, but I actually really think it might be time to get out of the Bay
