Jelly sparks security alert

From Ananova

A pile of jelly left by a road has sparked a major terrorist alert in Germany.

Hikers called the police after spotting the "flabby red, orange and green substance" and fearing it was toxic waste. The area at Halle, near Leipzig, was sealed while experts trained in biological and chemical warfare and wearing special suits and gas masks moved to examine the substance.

Samples were taken but the mystery was solved before the results were returned after a policeman heard a wedding had taken place a short while before, and questioned the newly married couple. The groom confessed that there had been a jelly fight the day before and that lots of the jelly had probably ended up on the road.

[It would seem that future terrorists can cut back on the time consuming business of bomb making and instead enjoy the delights of making jelly. I wonder what moulds/colours they would use to produce the biggest alerts.]
