A south african robot gun goes haywire, kills 9, and wounds 14 more.
This is why you don't arm your Steel Lynx when TargetStopper 2.0 is still in closed beta.

You know, the fact that you don't see him just means that he's gotten better at hiding, and you need to be even more afraid.

He wasn't kidding.
