Thanks, Rich. We’re at the scene in the Swine section of Howlbarn where just a few moments ago Mr. Wolf was arrested and driven away by the police. Now, here is some background on this story: Two homes, one made of hay and the other of sticks were found completely destroyed. There were said to be the homes of Pig#1 and Pig#2 who remain missing tonight as police search for clues in this twisted tragedy. When police arrived on the scene, the wolf was attempting to break into the 3rd pig’s house, who asked to remain under the condition of anonymity. His house was made of bricks which might explain how this pig may have remained alive. The pig stated that the wolf maliciously preyed on his siblings and had planned to do the same to him. (Distorted voice) “All this talk about needing sugar to bake a cake for his Granny! There is no Granny in this story, that’s in the story of Little Red Riding Hood!” One witness said they heard the wolf shouting, “Don’t you dare disrespect my granny like that!”, but it turned out that witness was the wolf’s lover. We did speak to another witness, who claimed he saw the wolf belch and part of what seemed like a pig’s tale fall out of his mouth. Police had planned to have the wolf examined at a nearby hospital. We’ll update you with that information as soon as it becomes available. So far it has been said that a razor was found in the rubble of the house of sticks which could have possibly been the murder weapon. Detectives plan to do a thorough search of his home. At this time, police have not found the wolf’s Granny. If the wolf is found guilty of murdering those two pigs, he may face up to 8 months in prison. Michelle O’Brien, WPIG news.

And now, our top story: Pork or Sugar? A wolf is under arrest tonight for allegedly eating two pigs and attempting to devour another. Apparently, the Wolf is proclaiming his innocence stating he was simply trying to get some sugar to bake a cake for his Granny. But the Pig insists he was the victim of attempted murder.

Samuel this was very creative - you actually rewrote parts of the story as well, by making a parallel to next week's reading on Little Red and the "true" grandmother. Indeed in many criminal cases an obvious criminal cannot be found guilty if no evidence is discovered.
Reminds me a bit of the OJ scandal.
