Suspicious Package...

Almost a week ago, Stamford police found a suspicious "package" on Hope St. It was a huge jug of yellow liquid. Oh, come on. You know what that is.
From the Advocate: STAMFORD - Police closed a section of Hope Street Sunday to investigate a suspicious package, officers at the scene said. At about 4 p.m., emergency officials wearing white protective suits and gas masks were seen next to a large bottle such as those used for water coolers. The bottle was filled with an unknown yellow liquid.

The area was cleared by 5:30 p.m., a police dispatcher said. A police supervisor did not offer details about the incident, deferring questions to the department's public information officer, who did not return phone calls.

I do not think definitive results have been released yet, but I bet that came from a bunch of teenage boys.

Yep, that's the first thing I thought. Pee from a homeless guy.

What I particularly enjoy is the complete lack of follow up. My trusty Magic 8 Ball tells me I shouldn't count on The Advocate ever publishing an article explaining what it was and how it got there.

But then again, we already know what it was!

i actually passed the jug of pee on a run that day... but i think it was much earlier than 530 pm so it must've been sitting there for a long time. is it bad that i wasn't remotely alarmed by the site of it?
