CHINATOWN - Just after sundown on Saturday, police responded to the sounds of an explosion at the Cheer Shine Automotive Garage on 54 Mott Street. Upon arriving at the scene of the crime, police discovered what appeared to be an attempt at explosives production gone horribly awry. The scene at the garage, "…looked like something out of a warzone." According to officer Daniel Hartford who was among the first responders on the scene. "There were a few bodies in the mix, looks like they were trying to make improvised explosives."
According to preliminary reports, two suspected PARIAH operatives were found dead at the scene, along with hundreds of pounds of chemical compounds used to make homemade explosives. The NYPD cite this as an exceptionally fortunate find on their behalf. "There's no telling what PARIAH could have done with these explosives if they were ablew to be manufactured." Stated Detective Aaron Brown earlier tonight at a press conference, "Rest assured that the NYPD is looking into this case closely, and we will follow any and all leads that arise from it."
