PTA APPREHENDS ANTENNA MAN, FINDS SECRET LAIR
... Pittsburgh PTA officers this morning, in a daring raid, apprehended Antenna Man in his secret Mount Washington lair. Hidden within the mountain itself, the underground lair contained computer equipment, a workout room, a garage/hangar, and dormitory facilities. Officers reported that "Antenna Man was captured while sleeping in what appeared to be a bedroom, after the PTA deactivated the lair's security/warning systems and breached locked entrances."

District Attorney David Markish indicated charges would be forthcoming in the next 48 hours against Antenna Man...

Check points were set up on all major streets, and PTA officers searched any suspicious vehicles for supers and high tech gadgetry. Eden indicated "we hope the citizens of Chicago will remain patient with the hardships presented by this unfortunate situation." Tempers ran high, but no major altercations were reported and no arrests were made. Eden also pointed out that since these measures were enforced, no parahuman activity has been seen within the city limits...

    I'm glad you realistically put the word "if" in there. You have a lot of work ahead of you before you get back to Chicago, Bane.
