ZCN 11/26/2419: Zaphira City Blackout: A Premeditated Crime Spree

This is a Zaphira City News publication from 11/26/2419.
== Zaphira City Blackout: A Premeditated Crime Spree ==
In recent weeks, Zaphira City was struck by a city-wide blackout, resulting in casualties, accidents, and many cases of robbery in the chaos and confusion. Investigations point out that the blackout was caused after a massive power draw within the city. While the police are still investigating, all involved have made preparations should such a situation occur in the future, and citizens are encouraged to do so as well and help each other during these times of need.
    Within minutes of the blackout occurring, shadowy figures in the darkness took advantage of the chaos to commit robbery, stealing tools and power units. Local Gabriel Lavode, owner of Orange Hardware described a robbery that occurred moments after the blackout began.
   "It was crazy how quick. Not like two minutes pass and I hear the glass shatter and these thugs run in and sweep through, threatening everyone."
   Gabriel described a mysterious woman intervening in the robbery and confronting the attackers.
  "She swoops in like Batman, beats these boys to pulp. And then leaps out -- whoosh -- leaving me with this flyer."
   The brief timeframe leads investigators to believe that a numbers of robberies were planned in advance. Police Chief Irons had this to say in regard to the possibility of another blackout: "We will be making sure that they do not, once we are able to pin down the cause.” 
    This has been Lawrence Frisker with Zaphira City News, bringing you the truth. We will continue to follow this story as it develops.
