I lived to see such a thing happen in my city! In the morning the entire central area of the city was blocked due to a “suspicious” suitcase located near the door of a craft store. Police, firefighters, antiterrorist troops, surrounded and stopped access to the area.
The operation took quite a long time. The suitcase was scanned before being removed. In the end, it turned out to be a bad joke! Inside the suitcase was an accordion. All’s well that ends well!
I wonder what a person who does such a bad joke can think?
Of course, I couldn’t stay away from the this area! I took my telephoto lens, hid myself at a distance of 50m from the respective area and took some pictures.
I share these photos with The Friday in Black and White Challenge

The picture or the event? What is great to see?
That is a very bad joke, indeed!
There are many crazy people in this world!
I do not understand people who make such jokes. It happens here too, and not once.
I also don’t understand why some do this. The man who left the suitcase was really stupid. He claims he has no fault for what happened. He no longer needed an accordion and wanted to give it as a gift. He was so stupid that he didn’t think a suitcase left in a public place unattended could be suspicious.
So glad it was a joke. This happens often here in the US, many times not a joke. So many crazy people up to no good.
As I said, everything is fine when it ends well. But it was not pleasant for those involved.
