[QUOTE="WizO_Pounamu, post: 2565492"] New York City, New York, USA (AP) March 30 2030 [SIZE=7]Kidnapping Foiled at Local Club[/SIZE] The heavy security of a nightclub in El Barrio disrupted the kidnap attempt on an immigant academic at approximately 3am this morning. Professor Alex Woodham had been drawn into discussion with O. Chandler who aledged that an ex-student of Prof. Woodham had taken techniques learnt in Prof. Woodham's classes and furthered them into bombs capable of killing thousands. Chandler had photos as evidence and claimed to be a government agent who needed Prof. Woodham's aid to stop the ex-student and "save the world". However by the time Chandler came to lead Prof. Woodham out of the building, Woodham had become uncertain and resisted, drawing the attention of TMP manager Jade Walker, off-duty but present at the time. Walker tried to stall the departure in the hope that Prof. Woodham would ask for help. Chandler lost patience at this point and injected Prof. Woodham with a sedative. A struggle resulted, drawing the attention of other customers in the club. Walker recalled, "It was quite amazing really. There were only two other women present, but when they realised the situation they tried to help in getting Prof. Woodham away from his would-be abductor even though Chandler may well have been further armed." Chandler then called for assistance, and four men in military uniforms forced their way into TMP which triggered a security system installed in the prior years when TMP's main area had been the grand foyer and meeting rooms of a WIZO branch. (See "alien luck", page 4 ((below)) ) This security system raised the alarm and sealed the exits, which effectively trapped kidappers and waylayers inside and notified the security personel in WIZO offices above the club. When questioned, Chandler claimed government backing for his actions and insisted that WIZO personel responding to the security alarm assist them, claiming to outrank them. Suffering the effects of the sedative, Prof. Woodham decided then to return to his residence without waiting to lay charges. He was escorted by a WIZO staff member. Without Prof. Woodham's backing the security personel had no choice but to allow the would-be kidnappers to depart. However the would be kidnappers were required to leave their identification for checking. All five individuals appeared to hold government issue identification. However a National Defence spokesperson this morning denied the existance of the disaster upon which Chandler based his story; also of the existance of or authority for any civilian seeking opperation in New York City. Prof. Woodham has not been avaliable for comment. [/QUOTE]
