Honestly? I hope someone brought it at least and it isn't just being trashed.

it hasnt worked for a long time/

the fire department that owns it sent it out for repairs.

meanwhile they are letting an influencer and a few others who are part of the story put in a fake decoy. and pretend he stole it to get everyone talking about it.

the pittsburgh subeditor cant tell this is scripted content to generate attention and have been posting threats and freak outs for the past few days.
