PNN News Flash: Prime Minister Xavier Methnor was rushed to the hospital several minutes ago. We still do not know the his condition but we will give details to you ASAP.

The event happened about 15 minutes ago. Methnor was finishing a press conference about the new military airbases. According to eyewitnesses, while on the way to his limosine, he was shaking hands with citizens, and right by the door of the vehicle, collapsed due to yet unknown reasons. Methnor was not ill or suffering any heart problems, so we have reason to believe that this was an attempt to kill him by unknown factors.

More details as we have them.

News flash: We bring to you live, a statement being made by General Glyfforian, who was with Methnor during his press conference.

"Citizens of Pwnica, please do not be alarmed. We have permission to release that indeed there was an attempt on our Prime Minister's life. We do not know all of the details yet, but it seems that one of the people he shook hands with was an assassin. It seems that he was somehow attacked with a lethal virus, possibly ebola. He is being treated right now at the nearest hospital. We will let you know of any updates in his situation, but right now, it does not look good.

We promise that we will find out who did this."

*Near the scene of the event, in an alley*
A suspicious woman goes to the end of the alley, takes out a pair of tweezers and removes a small layer of substance off of her right hand and throws it out in the trash. She then takes out her cellphone, dials a number, and says "It's done."

I would like to voice my peoples disgust at this unlawful attack.No leader should have to suffer from terrorism in such a way anything that we can do will be done to help you catch those responsible.
