Guy Straps A Fake Chocolate Bomb To His Chest, Gets Taken Down By Sniper [WATCH]

This guy was probably at a higher level of understanding than the rest of us, because there’s not a lot of people who would dress up in a hedgehog costume, strap a chocolate ‘bomb’ to their chest and walk around claiming they have government secrets.

The man strolled in to Baltimore’s WBFF-TV‘s news station and threatened to blow it up with his fake, sugary bomb, according to, well, WBFF-TV. Yup, even with their lives threatened, and the station evacuated, they still reported on the whole event.

The dude ended up getting shot by Baltimore PD, a few times actually, but after the first non-lethal shots did nothing, a sniper found a way to put him down.

Even when taken down, Baltimore PD had to be cautious, because the man was still conscious and with his hand in his pocket. Of course, at the time, authorities had no idea that all those wires wrapped around a bunch of chocolate bars, not a real bomb.

The Chocolate Bomber was in serious condition, but was stable according to Fox Baltimore.

The man claimed to have a flash drive containing government secrets, and while police retrieved the drive, they have not confirmed what was one it.

So your secrets are safe for now, government, but eventually the right chocolate-loving conspiracy theorist will find a way to expose it all– all of it, I tell ya!
