Headline News: BEAR patrol shoots wrong targets on Zel Sonn Station


The Balanced Equipped Animal Response team on Zel Sonn Station has so far been responsible for multiple incidents on the station. The first involved the BEAR patrol gunning down a harmless Kowakian monkey lizard owned by a small boy as a pet.

Shortly after that two Cathar were mistaken for predatory cats and gunned down on the Promenade.

The final incident involved the sighting of what was believed to be a swarm of carnivorous rodents. Reported one of the BEAR patrol: "They were nasty evil looking things with huge ears, huge sharp teeth, and horrible twitching noses covered with what we could only assume to be sharp poison tipped whiskers. When we approached they ran from us as if to regroup for a massive assault. We realized that had all gone into one of the Ion engine rooms, probably to plan their next move. We called in our heavy weapons team and struck before they could get us first. We opened the door and opened fire with Blaster Rifles, Cannons, Grenade Launchers, Rocket Launchers, and Nerve Gas. All in all, I think the engagement was a victory as we wiped out the enemy and sustained no casualties. The BEAR patrol works."

Xenobiologists insist that the 'enemy' was a gentle herbivore. There have been rolling blackouts throughout the station as engineers attempt to repair the damaged Ion engine though they have been hampered by radiation and nerve gas residue. Said one engineer, "We need to stop the BEAR patrol before they kill us all."
