Crowds of people from simple factory workers to high class business men beseiged newsagents and paper boys in the street, whilst armed policemen tried in vain to keep law and order. Bill posters were going up as soon as they were printed all over the nation, they stated in large letters; 'REGENT DIES IN BLIMP EXPLOSION, REBEL FACTION BLAMED!'.
This was news received only an hour ago via telegraph from the large town of Springhill, where the Regent stopped as part of his tour of the nation and where also his blimp exploded killing him as well as everyone else on board. However Prime Minister Richard Clark was 'forced' to drop from the tour after suddenly becoming quite ill, thou his personnel doctor confirmed he was servely ill but should hopefully recover soon enough.
The wreckage of the Regent's blimp is being investigated to find possible cuase of the explosion, thou the finger of blame is pointed straight at the Wasteland Confederate Army.
