Top outlaw killed in gunfight
2008-10-18
RAJSHAHI, Oct 17 (BSS): Masud alias Murgi Massud (35), a front-ranking leader of the outlawed Purbo Bangler Communist Party (ML-Lal Potaka), ...
So the Purbos are going to need another #3 ...
... was killed in a shootout between his cohorts and police at Taherpur Pabnapara under Bagmara Upazila Friday.
How the mighty Purbos have fallen, now to be whacked by mere policemen ...
Police sources said, Masud alias Akash alias Sabuj, son of Nur Muhammad ...
... who no longer knows him ...
... of Ramrama village under the same upazila, was a fugitive of twelve systems four sensational murders and two arms cases.
Sensational? We got yer sensational right here ...
Acting on a tip off, ...
... thanks to the ever-helpful Mahmoud the Weasel ...
... police conducted operation in a mango orchard of Taherpur Pabnapara ...
... no, we don't know where that is ...
... when Masud was holding a clandestine meeting with his associates.
Couldn't they have hired the local VFW hall?
Police team captured Masud from his locality and subsequently handed him over to Bagmara police.
Who thumped him down elebenteen flights of stairs ...
On his painfully-extracted confessional statement, ...
Did he confess to torching the Hindenburg or did they stop at the Lindbergh baby?
... a police team was taking him to nearby Taherpur area to arrest his other accomplices and recover hidden firearms.
And there our radiocast ends. You can figure out the rest, but if you can't, check in again soon for another exciting edition of Tales from the Crossfire Gazette Top Outlaw Killed in Gunfight!

Let me guess:
1. Sense police.
2. Open fire on cops.
3. Cops return fire.
4. Masud catches bullet on spot.
5. "Rosebud!"
6. Cohorts vanish into the night.
7. "He's dead, Jim"
8. Find local gun and three round of bullet.
9. The End

#1  Heh, the article really does end there. I guess everyone already knows the ending. Headline says man killed, but it's not confirmed by the article. Does the writer work for the New York Times?
