+ Network Wind Profiler Severely Damaged
+ A wind profiler in OAR's Wind Profiler Demonstration Network (WPDN) was
+ severely damaged by several shot-gun blasts late last week. On March
+ 28, just before sunrise, two men and one woman were pheasant hunting in
+ southern Nebraska [and] came across the McCook wind profiler and
+ mistook it for an alien spacecraft. Frightened, they fired a number of
+ shots damaging the profiler antenna and the electronics shed.
+ Furthermore, a Forecast Systems Lab (FSL) technician who was in the
+ shed conducting routine system checks was taken hostage by the
+ hunters. After being held captive for nearly two hours, the
+ technician's partner arrived and explained to the hunters what the
+ profiler really was. The hunters then fled and so far, they have not
+ been apprehended by law enforcement officials. Profiler damage is
+ estimated at $150,000.
And people wonder why 'aliens' might be reluctant to make contact ...
