Police mistake a band sticker for an actual threat, arrest owner

This is right up there with the Ravenna Mario boxes prank. Oh and this got syndicated by The New York Times Web site, though I cannot find it right now. Lisa showed it to me in the newsroom though.

Oh, and aren't those article pages on the new bgnews.com looking better and better?
