A Baltimore TV station has been evacuated after a man dressed as a hedgehog walked in claiming to have a bomb. The unidentified suspect dressed in costume entered the Fox 45 offices on the city's TV Hill, and told staff he had an explosive strapped to his chest. Pictures taken from the outside the building show the individual, wearing a white onesie with grey ears, leaning against the wall of the lobby. He also appeared to be wearing a white medical mask and glasses. Police spokesman T.J. Smith told the media said he walked in and showed a contractor a flash drive and then revealed wires attached to a device on his chest. Shortly after the building was cleared, he reportedly left and walked towards heavily-armed SWAT officers. After a stand-off where he ignored police orders, he was shot by a police counter sniper. His condition is not known. Bomb technicians were then sent to the scene to analyse the device on him as he lay in the middle of the road. Reports suggested the man told employees he had a flash drive holding 'important information'. A security guard told WJZ the memory stick had information regarding astronomy, including phenomenon such as black holes. He demanded that the information be released, but the security guard managed to diffuse the situation and the man left. The guard said: 'My first instinct was to try and keep him calm. 'He kept trying to come in the door but I said he couldn't come in. 'It was him talking to the camera and letting us know the government was hiding things.' Employees were told to stand outside in the car park while law enforcement cordoned off the area. There was also an engine fire in a car parked outside the TV station. Smith said a rag had been stuck inside the petrol tank and set on fire.
