October 24th -- three entire blocks of a neighborhood lay in ruins tonight after a paintball game went very wrong. It all started as a group of kids were playing tag and eventually brought paintball guns into the mix. Hardly expert marksmen, many of the participants of the game missed their intended targets and ended up coating the neighborhood with paint. Investigators believe that at some point one of the paintball guns was loaded with red paint and one of the more stupid players believed he had actually been shot with live ammunition. Naturally he pulled out a real firearm and began blasting. In a rather odd and inexplicable turn of events, it seems everyone in the area had actual firearms, clay more mines, C4, and even RPGs ready to go. The result was the nearly instant destruction of a large portion of the town in the span of barely fifteen minutes. There was not a vehicle left unharmed by sunset. The National Guard was called in to suppress the violence but refused to respond saying that, "...the neighborhood didn't have very much valuable real estate" and "it would be better to let God sort things out."
