My brother is not dead! 00:31:24.100 --> 00:31:25.000 Oh. 00:32:09.030 --> 00:32:12.320 because of the obvious threat to untold numbers of citizens 00:32:12.440 --> 00:32:13.760 and because of the crisis 00:32:13.880 --> 00:32:16.220 which is even now developing this radio station 00:32:16.340 --> 00:32:19.360 will remain on the air day and night this station 00:32:19.480 --> 00:32:22.980 and hundreds of other radio and TV stations throughout this part of the country 00:32:23.100 --> 00:32:25.640 are pooling their resources through an emergency network 00:32:25.760 --> 00:32:28.440 hookup to keep you informed of all developments. 00:32:28.560 --> 00:32:31.760 At this hour, we repeat, these are the facts as we know them. 00:32:31.880 --> 00:32:33.520 There is an epidemic of mass murder 00:32:33.640 --> 00:32:36.940 being committed by a virtual army of unidentified assassins. 00:32:37.060 --> 00:32:40.640 The murders are taking place in villages, cities, rural homes, 00:32:40.760 --> 00:32:44.440 and suburbs with no apparent pattern or reason for the slayings. 00:32:44.560 --> 00:32:47.520 It seems to be a sudden, general explosion of mass homicide. 00:32:47.640 --> 00:32:50.520 We have some descriptions of the assassins. 00:32:50.810 --> 00:32:53.540 Eyewitnesses say they are ordinary looking people. 00:32:53.660 --> 00:32:55.400 Some say they appear to be in a kind 00:32:55.520 --> 00:32:58.460 of trance. Others describe them as being... 00:33:07.110 --> 00:33:10.760 So at this point there is no really authentic way for us to say 00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:14.071 who or what to look for and guard yourself against. 00:33:14.280 --> 00:33:15.406 Mishapen monsters. 00:33:15.770 --> 00:33:18.020 Reaction of law enforcement officials is one 00:33:18.140 --> 00:33:19.720 of complete bewilderment at this hour. 00:33:19.840 --> 00:33:22.640 So far we have been unable to determine 00:33:22.760 --> 00:33:25.660 that any kind of organized investigation is yet underway. 00:33:25.780 --> 00:33:27.400 Police, sheriff's deputies, 00:33:27.520 --> 00:33:31.200 and emergency ambulances are literally deluged with calls for help. 00:33:31.320 --> 00:33:33.880 The scene can best be described as mayhem. 00:33:34.000 --> 00:33:36.460 Mayors of Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and Miami, 00:33:36.580 --> 00:33:39.520 along with the governors of several eastern and midwestern states, 00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:42.880 have indicated the National Guard may be mobilized at any moment, 00:33:42.955 --> 00:33:44.302 but that has not happened as yet. 00:33:44.352 --> 00:33:48.140 The only advice our reporters have been able to get from official 00:33:48.260 --> 00:33:52.940 sources is for private citizens to stay in their homes behind locked doors. 00:33:53.060 --> 00:33:55.300 Do not venture outside for any reason 00:33:55.375 --> 00:33:57.457 until the nature of this crisis has been determined 00:33:57.507 --> 00:34:00.560 and until we can advise what course of action to take. 00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:02.120 Keep listening to radio 00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:06.495 and TV for any special instructions as this crisis develops further. 00:34:06.690 --> 00:34:10.020 Thousands of office and factory workers are being urged 00:34:10.140 --> 00:34:11.860 to stay at their places of employment, 00:34:11.980 --> 00:34:14.420 not to make any attempt to get to their homes. 00:34:14.540 --> 00:34:16.680 However, in spite of this urging and warning, 00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:19.160 streets and highways are packed with frantic 00:34:19.235 --> 00:34:23.053 people trying to raise their families or apparently to flee just anywhere. 00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:28.554 I repeat, the safest course of action at this time is simply to stay where you are. 00:34:47.070 --> 00:34:49.380 Ladies and gentlemen, we've just received word 00:34:49.500 --> 00:34:51.920 that the president has called a meeting of his cabinet 00:34:52.040 --> 00:34:54.260 to deal with the sudden epidemic of murder 00:34:54.380 --> 00:34:56.560 which has seized the eastern third of this nation. 00:34:56.680 --> 00:34:59.200 The meeting is scheduled to convene within the hour. 00:34:59.320 --> 00:35:02.800 Members of the presidential cabinet will be joined by officials of the FBI 00:35:02.920 --> 00:35:05.620 and the Joint Chiefs behind closed doors. 00:35:05.930 --> 00:35:09.160 The White House spokesman in announcing this conference says there 00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:12.382 will be an official announcement as soon as possible following that meeting. 00:35:12.480 --> 00:35:16.110 This is the latest dispatch just received in our newsroom. 00:35:16.230 --> 00:35:19.300 Latest word also from National Press Services in Washington, D .C. 00:35:19.420 --> 00:35:22.380 now tells us that the emergency presidential conference, 00:35:22.455 --> 00:35:23.557 which we've just mentioned, 00:35:23.607 --> 00:35:26.760 will include high -ranking scientists from the National Aeronautics 00:35:26.880 --> 00:35:28.360 and Space Administration. 00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:31.859 That's the extent of this latest little -time meeting. 00:35:43.103 --> 00:35:46.920 We're listening, have joined their facilities in an emergency 00:35:47.040 --> 00:35:49.540 network to bring you this news as it develops. 00:35:49.660 --> 00:35:55.340 We urge you to stay tuned to radio and TV and to stay indoors at all costs. 00:35:55.460 --> 00:35:58.280 Late reports reaching this newsroom tell 00:35:58.400 --> 00:36:01.020 of frightened people seeking refuge in churches, schools, 00:36:01.140 --> 00:36:04.880 and government buildings demanding shelter and protection from the wholesale murder 00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:07.400 which apparently is engulfing much of the nation. 00:36:07.520 --> 00:36:11.560 Law enforcement officials are at a loss to explain or, even at this hour, 00:36:11.680 --> 00:36:14.440 even to theorize about the reasons for this wave of murder. 00:36:14.560 --> 00:36:17.100 So far, the only advice we're able to give 00:36:17.220 --> 00:36:19.860 the public is something that the chief, T .K. 00:36:19.980 --> 00:36:23.920 Dunmore of Camden, North Carolina, has quoted as saying, quote, 00:36:24.040 --> 00:36:26.460 Tell the people, for God's sake, to get off the streets. 00:36:26.580 --> 00:36:29.760 Tell them to go home and lock their doors and windows up tight. 00:36:29.880 --> 00:36:33.500 We don't know what kind of murder -happy characters we have here, 00:36:33.620 --> 00:36:37.240 end quote, says Chief Dunmore of Camden, North Carolina. 00:36:38.000 --> 00:36:41.400 so far the only descriptions the only clues anyone 00:36:41.520 --> 00:36:44.600 has of the killers come from frightened witnesses of some of the slaves 00:36:44.720 --> 00:36:47.940 these eyewitness accounts variously describe the murderers 00:36:48.060 --> 00:36:51.680 as ordinary looking people misshapen monsters people 00:36:51.800 --> 00:36:54.240 who look like they're in a trance and things 00:36:54.360 --> 00:36:59.260 that look like people but act like animals some eyewitnesses tell of seeing victims 00:36:59.380 --> 00:37:03.220 who look as though they had been torn apart this whole 00:37:03.340 --> 00:37:07.200 ghastly story began developing two days ago with the report of the slaying 00:37:07.320 --> 00:37:10.500 of a family of seven in their rural home near Belfort. 00:37:10.620 --> 00:37:13.080 Since then, reports of such senseless killings 00:37:13.200 --> 00:37:15.060 began snowballing in a reign of terror 00:37:15.180 --> 00:37:17.140 which has hopscotch in an erratic, 00:37:17.260 --> 00:37:21.080 disconnected manner throughout much of the eastern and midwestern United States. 00:37:21.200 --> 00:37:24.980 Efforts to keep track of the murder reports by the placing of markers on a map 00:37:25.100 --> 00:37:27.580 seem to indicate a general spreading of the extreme 00:37:27.700 --> 00:37:30.780 southeastern United States from the north and west. 00:37:30.900 --> 00:37:33.180 Our newsmen have been on the telephone talking 00:37:33.300 --> 00:37:35.620 with officials in other cities and have determined 00:37:35.740 --> 00:37:38.980 that none of this kind of mass murder has yet been reported 00:37:39.100 --> 00:37:40.840 west of the Mississippi River except 00:37:40.960 --> 00:37:44.220 in the extreme southeastern portion of Texas. 00:37:44.340 --> 00:37:47.040 Similar killings have been reported around the Houston 00:37:47.160 --> 00:37:49.220 and Galveston areas, but nothing like... 00:37:49.340 --> 00:37:51.906 I found a gun and some bullets out there. 00:37:52.067 --> 00:37:54.820 It was only late yesterday... Oh, and these. 00:37:54.940 --> 00:37:58.440 ...it became clear we were facing some kind of national emergency. 00:37:58.560 --> 00:38:00.960 When first reports began filtering in, newsmen 00:38:01.080 --> 00:38:03.020 and law enforcement agencies... 00:38:03.260 --> 00:38:05.888 This place is boarded up pretty solid now. 00:38:06.210 --> 00:38:09.125 We ought to be all right here for a while. 00:38:09.245 --> 00:38:11.540 We have the gun and the bullets. 00:38:12.680 --> 00:38:13.869 Food and the radio. 00:38:16.500 --> 00:38:20.004 Sooner or later, someone's bound to come and get us out. 00:38:24.420 --> 00:38:25.320 Hey, 00:38:26.960 --> 00:38:27.860 that's us. 00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:30.377 We're doing all right. 00:38:32.350 --> 00:38:34.950 to your radio and television for survival instructions 00:38:35.070 --> 00:38:37.844 and further details of this continuing story. 00:38:37.964 --> 00:38:42.155 Look, I don't know if you're hearing me, but I'm going upstairs now. 00:38:42.205 --> 00:38:47.060 If anything should try to break in here, I can hear it from up there. 00:38:47.180 --> 00:38:49.183 I'll be down to take care of it. 00:38:50.690 --> 00:38:52.440 Everything is all right for now. 00:38:52.560 --> 00:38:55.939 I'll be back to reinforce the windows and doors later. 00:38:56.140 --> 00:38:58.518 But you'll be all right for now, okay? 00:39:00.720 --> 00:39:01.620 Okay. 00:39:04.658 --> 00:39:08.037 Civil defense officials in Cumberland have told newsmen 00:39:08.157 --> 00:39:10.680 that murder victims show evidence of having 00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:13.560 been partially devoured by their murderers. 00:39:16.640 --> 00:39:18.640 (music playing) 00:39:51.770 --> 00:39:55.240 consistent reports from witnesses to the effect that people 00:39:55.360 --> 00:39:58.080 who acted as though they were in a kind of trance were killing 00:39:58.200 --> 00:40:01.340 and eating their victims prompted authorities to examine 00:40:01.460 --> 00:40:02.920 the bodies of some of the victims. 00:40:03.040 --> 00:40:05.480 Medical authorities in Cumberland have concluded 00:40:05.600 --> 00:40:11.240 that in all cases the killers are eating the flesh of the people they murdered. 00:40:11.390 --> 00:40:13.580 Repeating this latest bulletin just 00:40:13.700 --> 00:40:15.618 received moments ago from Cumberland, Maryland, 00:40:15.720 --> 00:40:17.760 civil defense authorities have told newsmen 00:40:17.880 --> 00:40:20.380 that murder victims show evidence of having 00:40:20.500 --> 00:40:22.940 been partially devoured by their murderers. 00:40:23.060 --> 00:40:26.260 Medical examination of victims' bodies shows conclusively 00:40:26.380 --> 00:40:29.500 that the killers are eating the flesh of the people they kill 00:40:29.620 --> 00:40:34.760 and so this incredible story becomes more ghastly with each report 00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:37.420 it's difficult to imagine such a thing actually happening 00:40:37.540 --> 00:40:40.040 but these are the reports we have been receiving 00:40:40.160 --> 00:40:41.480 and passing on to you reports 00:40:41.600 --> 00:40:44.360 which have been verified as completely as is possible 00:40:44.480 --> 00:40:46.900 in this confused situation it is happening 00:40:47.020 --> 00:40:50.587 and it would appear that no one is safe from this wave of 00:40:59.060 --> 00:41:02.660 Hold it! Don't shoot! We're from town. A radio. 00:41:03.282 --> 00:41:05.660 The Butler County Sheriff has verified 00:41:05.780 --> 00:41:08.600 that reports of murder victims being partially 00:41:08.720 --> 00:41:10.800 eaten by their slayers is true. 00:41:10.920 --> 00:41:15.240 No further details available at this time. How long have you guys been down there? 00:41:15.360 --> 00:41:18.627 I could use some help up here. That's the cellar. It's the safest place. 00:41:18.677 --> 00:41:21.085 You mean you didn't hear the racket we were making up here? 00:41:21.160 --> 00:41:23.078 How were we supposed to know what was going on? 00:41:23.128 --> 00:41:26.320 Could have been those things for all we knew. That girl was screaming. 00:41:26.440 --> 00:41:28.640 Sure you must know what a girl screaming sounds like. 00:41:28.760 --> 00:41:32.160 Those things don't make any noise. Anybody would know somebody's been needed help. 00:41:32.273 --> 00:41:34.885 Look, it's kind of hard to hear what's going on from down there. 00:41:34.960 --> 00:41:37.654 We thought we could hear screams, but for all we knew, 00:41:37.704 --> 00:41:40.276 that could have meant those things were in the house afterward. 00:41:40.326 --> 00:41:43.195 And you wouldn't come up and help? Well, if there were more of them... 00:41:43.245 --> 00:41:45.613 That racket sounded like the place was being ripped apart. 00:41:45.663 --> 00:41:48.400 How were we supposed to know what was going on? Now, wait a minute. 00:41:48.520 --> 00:41:51.100 You just got finished saying you couldn't hear from down there. 00:41:51.195 --> 00:41:53.685 Now you say it sounded like the place was being ripped apart. 00:41:53.760 --> 00:41:58.954 It would be nice if you'd get your story straight, man. All right, now you tell me. 00:41:59.074 --> 00:42:02.400 I'm not going to take that kind of a chance when we've got a safe place. 00:42:02.520 --> 00:42:03.840 We luck into a safe place, 00:42:03.960 --> 00:42:06.200 and you're telling us we've got to risk our lives just 00:42:06.320 --> 00:42:08.220 because somebody might need help, huh? 00:42:08.340 --> 00:42:12.240 Yeah, something like that. All right, why don't we settle this - Whoa, mister! 00:42:12.360 --> 00:42:14.175 We came up, okay? We're here. 00:42:14.295 --> 00:42:16.500 Now I suggest we all go back downstairs 00:42:16.620 --> 00:42:18.940 before any of those things find out we're in here. 00:42:19.060 --> 00:42:23.100 They can't get in here. You got the whole place boarded up? Yeah, most of it. 00:42:23.220 --> 00:42:27.380 I'll put a few spots upstairs. They won't be hard to fix. You're insane. 00:42:27.500 --> 00:42:31.180 The cellar's the safest place. I'm telling you they can't get in here. 00:42:31.300 --> 00:42:34.060 And I'm telling you those things turned over our car. 00:42:34.180 --> 00:42:35.800 We were damn lucky to get away at all. 00:42:35.920 --> 00:42:40.280 Now you tell me those things can't get through this lousy pile of wood? 00:42:40.400 --> 00:42:42.465 His wife and kids down on stairs. 00:42:42.740 --> 00:42:43.679 The kid's hurt. 00:42:45.700 --> 00:42:48.516 Well, I still think we're better off up here. 00:42:48.636 --> 00:42:51.300 We could strengthen everything up, Mr. Cooper. 00:42:51.420 --> 00:42:53.920 With all of us working, we can fix this place up in no time. 00:42:54.040 --> 00:42:56.420 We have everything we need up here. We can take all 00:42:56.540 --> 00:42:58.417 that stuff downstairs with us. 00:42:58.537 --> 00:43:01.920 Man, you're really crazy, you know that? You got a million windows up here. 00:43:02.040 --> 00:43:02.793 All these windows, 00:43:02.843 --> 00:43:05.505 you're gonna make them strong enough to keep these things out, huh? 00:43:05.580 --> 00:43:07.505 I told you, those things don't have any strength. 00:43:07.580 --> 00:43:10.029 I smashed three of them and pushed another one out the door. 00:43:10.079 --> 00:43:13.740 Did you hear me when I told you they turned over our car? 00:43:13.860 --> 00:43:16.740 Oh, hell, any good five men can do that. That's my point. 00:43:16.860 --> 00:43:19.000 Only there's not going to be five or even ten. 00:43:19.120 --> 00:43:21.626 There's going to be 20, 30, maybe 100 of those things. 00:43:21.676 --> 00:43:23.145 And as soon as they know we're here, 00:43:23.220 --> 00:43:25.057 this place is going to be crawling with them. 00:43:25.107 --> 00:43:28.420 Well, if they're that many, they'll probably get us wherever we are. 00:43:28.540 --> 00:43:29.440 Look. 00:43:29.603 --> 00:43:32.920 The cellar. The cellar, there's only one door, right? 00:43:33.040 --> 00:43:35.620 Just one door, that's all we have to protect. 00:43:35.740 --> 00:43:38.260 Tom and I fixed it so it locks and boards from the inside. 00:43:38.380 --> 00:43:41.360 but up here all these windows why we'd never know 00:43:41.480 --> 00:43:43.880 where they were gonna hit us next you got a point mr. 00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:47.560 Cooper but down in the cellar there's no place to run to I mean 00:43:47.680 --> 00:43:53.520 if they did get in the back eggs we'd be done for we can get out of here 00:43:53.640 --> 00:43:55.480 if we have to and we got windows to see 00:43:55.600 --> 00:43:58.820 what's going on outside but down there with no windows 00:43:58.940 --> 00:44:01.080 if a rescue party did come we wouldn't even know 00:44:01.200 --> 00:44:03.740 But the cellar is the strongest place. 00:44:03.860 --> 00:44:07.177 The cellar is a death trap. I don't know, Mr. Cooper. 00:44:07.980 --> 00:44:09.169 I think he's right. 00:44:09.715 --> 00:44:14.092 You know how many's out there? I don't know. Maybe six or seven. 00:44:14.212 --> 00:44:16.880 Look, you two can do whatever you like. 00:44:17.353 --> 00:44:20.920 I'm going back down to the cellar, and you better decide, 00:44:21.040 --> 00:44:22.720 because I'm gonna board up that door, 00:44:22.840 --> 00:44:25.300 and I'm not gonna unlock it again, no matter what happens. 00:44:25.420 --> 00:44:28.940 Now, wait a minute, Mr. Cooper. No, I'm not gonna wait. I've made my decision. 00:44:29.060 --> 00:44:32.400 Now, you make yours. Now, wait a minute. Let's think about this. 00:44:32.520 --> 00:44:35.211 We can make it to the cellar if we have to. 00:44:35.331 --> 00:44:38.960 And if we do decide to stay down there, we'll need some things from up here. 00:44:39.080 --> 00:44:41.583 So let's at least consider this a while. 00:44:45.055 --> 00:44:46.799 If you box yourself in the cellar 00:44:46.849 --> 00:44:49.438 and those things get in the house, you've had it. 00:44:49.488 --> 00:44:51.813 At least up here you have a fighting chance. 00:44:55.094 --> 00:45:00.100 Yeah, it looks like about eight or ten out there now. Just more than there were. 00:45:00.220 --> 00:45:02.097 There are a lot out back, too. 00:45:43.960 --> 00:45:44.860 Harry? 00:45:45.340 --> 00:45:48.844 It's all right. Harry, what's happening?

She hasn't said anything. 01:01:55.460 --> 01:01:56.649 I don't understand. 01:01:58.320 --> 01:01:59.220 Baby. 01:02:00.380 --> 01:02:01.280 It's Mommy. 01:02:02.420 --> 01:02:03.320 I heard. 01:02:04.990 --> 01:02:08.620 I'll come back, Don, as soon as I find out what they want. 01:02:08.740 --> 01:02:09.741 Thank you, Judy. 01:02:11.095 --> 01:02:15.100 The body should be disposed of at once, preferably by cremation. 01:02:15.220 --> 01:02:18.760 Well, how long after death, then, does the body become reactivated? 01:02:18.880 --> 01:02:20.545 It's only a matter of minutes. 01:02:20.595 --> 01:02:23.452 Minutes? Well, that doesn't give people time to make any arrangements. 01:02:23.502 --> 01:02:26.520 No, you're right. It doesn't give them time to make funeral arrangements. 01:02:26.640 --> 01:02:30.720 The bodies must be carried to the street and burned. 01:02:31.317 --> 01:02:35.825 They must be burned immediately. Soak them with gasoline and burn them. 01:02:35.945 --> 01:02:39.310 The bereaved will have to forego the dubious comforts 01:02:39.430 --> 01:02:41.525 that a funeral service will give. 01:02:41.660 --> 01:02:44.220 They're just dead flesh and dangerous. 01:02:44.840 --> 01:02:47.260 I need you to find some bedspreads 01:02:47.380 --> 01:02:49.900 or sheets to tear up into small strips, okay? 01:02:50.020 --> 01:02:52.000 Is there a fruit cellar here? Yes. 01:02:52.120 --> 01:02:54.720 We need some bottles or jars to make Balotov cocktails 01:02:54.795 --> 01:02:56.468 and hold them off while we try to escape. 01:02:56.518 --> 01:02:59.860 Hey, there's a big can of kerosene down there. I'll see what I can find. 01:02:59.980 --> 01:03:01.180 I'll look for the bottles. 01:03:01.300 --> 01:03:05.440 There's a big key ring down there, or maybe a key to the gas pump on it. 01:03:05.560 --> 01:03:06.460 I'll check. 01:03:06.994 --> 01:03:09.848 We can toss the cocktails from a window upstairs. 01:03:09.898 --> 01:03:12.265 Meantime, a couple of us can go out and try to get the gas 01:03:12.340 --> 01:03:14.013 and come back for the rest of the people. 01:03:14.063 --> 01:03:18.820 But that'll leave a door open someplace yeah, that's right better be this door. 01:03:18.940 --> 01:03:24.000 It's closer to the truck Before we go out with some supplies behind the cellar door 01:03:24.075 --> 01:03:26.238 while we're gone the rest of you can hold up in there 01:03:26.288 --> 01:03:29.200 I found some fruit jars in the cellar and there's a key on here. 01:03:29.320 --> 01:03:31.823 That's labeled for the gas pump out back 01:03:32.214 --> 01:03:34.852 Not really that used to the truck I found 01:03:34.972 --> 01:03:37.802 it abandoned I can handle the truck no sweat 01:03:37.922 --> 01:03:41.524 and kill living human beings in need of all their flesh. 01:03:41.900 --> 01:03:43.965 You're it, then.

They're going to be so worried about us. 01:05:00.770 --> 01:05:04.813 It'll be all right. As soon as we get to Willard, we'll call them. 01:05:04.933 --> 01:05:06.464 They might even be there. 01:05:07.120 --> 01:05:08.020 I know. 01:05:12.360 --> 01:05:13.260 Tom. 01:05:14.990 --> 01:05:19.120 Are you sure we're doing the right thing, Tom?

No, we're all right. 01:19:17.200 --> 01:19:19.760 Hey, Cass, put that thing all the way in the fire. 01:19:19.880 --> 01:19:22.008 We don't want it getting up again. 01:19:22.128 --> 01:19:25.940 Chief, Chief McClellan, how's everything going?

There wasn't, though. 01:19:42.180 --> 01:19:43.772 We heard them making all kind of noise. 01:19:43.860 --> 01:19:46.140 We came over and beat them off, blasted them down. 01:19:46.260 --> 01:19:49.560 Chief, the furniture's finished. Can I see you here? Yeah, okay. 01:19:49.680 --> 01:19:52.300 Chief, if I were surrounded by six or eight of these things, 01:19:52.398 --> 01:19:53.745 would I stand a chance with them? 01:19:53.820 --> 01:19:56.555 Well, there's no problem. If you had a gun, shoot them in the head. 01:19:56.605 --> 01:19:59.820 That's a sure way to kill them. If you don't get yourself a club or a torch, 01:19:59.940 --> 01:20:02.120 beat them or burn them, they go up pretty easy. 01:20:02.240 --> 01:20:03.286 Well, Chief McClellan, 01:20:03.336 --> 01:20:04.723 how long do you think it will take 01:20:04.773 --> 01:20:06.660 you until you get the situation under control? 01:20:06.780 --> 01:20:09.800 Well, that's pretty hard to say. We don't know how many of them there are. 01:20:09.920 --> 01:20:12.440 We know when we find them, we can kill them. 01:20:12.560 --> 01:20:17.260 Are they slow -moving, Chief? Yeah, they're dead. They're all messed up. 01:20:17.500 --> 01:20:22.381 Well, in time, would you say you ought to be able to wrap this up in 24 hours? 01:20:22.530 --> 01:20:24.220 Well, we don't really know. 01:20:24.340 --> 01:20:26.540 We know we'll be into it most of the night, 01:20:26.660 --> 01:20:28.140 probably into the early morning. 01:20:28.260 --> 01:20:29.812 We're working our way toward Willard, 01:20:29.862 --> 01:20:32.025 and we'll team up with the National Guard over there, 01:20:32.100 --> 01:20:34.222 and then we'll be able to give a more definite view. 01:20:34.272 --> 01:20:39.240 Thank you very much, Chief McClellan. This is Bill Cardill, WIC -TV11 News. 01:20:39.860 --> 01:20:41.925 Thank you, Bill, for that report. 01:20:42.045 --> 01:20:44.860 Official spokesmen declined to speculate just how long 01:20:44.980 --> 01:20:47.280 it may take to kill off all the flesh eaters, 01:20:47.400 --> 01:20:49.220 so long as the heavy rain... 01:20:55.520 --> 01:20:58.840 Is the fuse box in the cellar?
