To clarify, this is not the first time this particular police dept has done the same boneheaded stunt. A few years ago, they staged a mock terrorist takeover of city hall as the annual disaster drill. The idea was that an anti-government "militia" had taken over city hall.
The first "terrorist" chased a city worker who was trying to run out the door and dragged him back inside, while holding a fake (but realistic looking) shotgun to his head. Now I will give them this: all of the participants knew it was a drill. The patrons in nearby businesses did not.
