At approximately 0800 hours this morning, 167,000 metric liters of chlorine gas, a highly volatile and lethal vapor, were reported missing from the Black Mesa Anomalous Materials Research Laboratory in southern Unreal Soldiers, H3's neighbor and scientific research partner to the east. According to unnamed sources inside Black Mesa, the gas was part of a new energy fuel cell to be used for civilian vehicles as an alternative to the slightly unstable hydrogen fuel cells which are currently the standard.

The vehicles carrying the gas are 3 unmarked flatbed trucks, probably dark tinted windows and a canvas cover. They were reported heading west outside of H3 borders last time they were seen. It is advised that all who come into contact with these vehicles call their local authorities as soon as possible. Also, make the utmost attempt not to cause any damage to the vehicles or their contents - the gas is prone to explosions in its current form.

Soon after the large volume of gas was reported missing, we immediately began a search of all our vehicles. Scanners showed that 3 of our unmarked flatbeds were heading west. An employee check showed that 4 workers, fairly new to the Black Mesa Facility, were also missing.

Upon bringing up the secure videofeeds, being collected from a camera inside the cab, we found that the 4 workers were driving the flatbeds. What they did not know, however, is that Black Mesa's Security division can remotely control all of our vehicles. At our command, we secured the doors and windows to the flatbeds, and promptly turned them around and drove them back to base. A squad of troopers were waiting for the renegade workers upon arrival back to Black Mesa. The workers claim they were to recieve a large amount of money from an outside group for delivering the stolen gas.

The gas has been returned to the facility, and the workers have been sentenced to death by Induced GastroIntestinal Inflation.
