appreciate your work here homie.

weird about the pizza thing—i apologize to readers for the slight misinformation there (obviously this is not my meme but i do still stand by its rhetorical value).

The case definitely involved an incident of "police thought they saw a firearm that didn't exist", it just doesn't say anywhere in the Wikipedia article that what they thought they saw was actually another object. Maybe it's true, but it's a piece of trivia from an external article that just didn't make the Wikipedia page.
