Before anyone jumps to any conclusions...say, about Detroit...
The perp was from out of state.

I am glad they arrested the person. It sounds like he was looking for attention.

Dude pulled the fire alarm, then damaged an old clock.


He probably had something against time.

I wish they would give a little bit more information on the damage. The Freep is better than Fox news though.

I guess i was more interested in what he did to the clock, but didnt exaclty explain that. did pulling the fire alarm trigger sprinklers ? or did he take a hatchet to it? Or did he stick gum to it like the kid at the DIA a few years back?

Smashed the face of it. You can see for yourself at the DHM. No sprinklers went off.

He wasn't playing with a full deck. Cuckoo for cocoa puffs.

Again, nothing to do with Detroit residents, Cass Corridor folks, kids... a good lesson for all against profiling anyone...

Lol!!! Why would sprinklers ever go off in a fire alarm? There has to be an actual fire present. Thats how they work.

Such a shame someone damaged it. What heck goes through people's heads?

The dude needs to run the gauntlet of Detroiter's who remember the clock and appreciate all it's history.
