A man claiming to have a bomb strapped to his chest threatened a Baltimore TV station Thursday afternoon, and was later shot by police after walking out of the building.
It all started at Fox 45 in the Woodberry section of Baltimore around 1:20 p.m. .
A security guard with Fox 45 tells WJZ reporter George Solis that a man walked into the station wearing a hedgehog outfit and medical mask, claiming he had a bomb.
“He pretty much said he had a bomb on him and that he had a message that he needed to be heard,” said the security guard.
The security guard said the suspect had a flash drive containing files that had to do with astronomy.
“It pretty much had to do with any with astronomy–black holes, the sun, about it being liquid and gas, and he just wanted to say that the government was wrong in thinking about the way they do when it comes to anything in space,” said the guard.
