Armed Siege At Bowling Center Ends

Lawrence Hallett, who had been at a family children's party at the alley, told Sky News: "One of the staff came up to us and quietly whispered in my ear to leave and I initially thought it was a fire alarm or something like that and I said 'What's the problem? We are halfway through a game' and he said 'There is a gunman'."
   Witnesses also said the gunman appeared "weird-looking" and shouted "game over" as he approached families bowling in the complex.

While I'm glad this ended without any incident (read: casualty/fatality, etc.), I wonder how many Tom Shannon and Bowlmor memes are going to be made from this. ;)
