NEWS FLASH: CWF SABOTEUR APPREHENDED!

Canterlot – The Canterlot Royal Guard has apprehended the pegasus responsible for last week’s winter disaster at the Cloudsdale Weather Factory (CWF). Rainbow Dash, age withheld, may face charges of public endangerment, vandalism, industrial sabotage and property destruction.

“They left me no choice. Winter was coming fast and I had to stop it”, says the pegasus, who revealed no real intent for the sabotage. Close friends had noted her erratical behaviour before committing the heinous act. The pegasus was last heard uttering “I’d do it again!”, before being escorted away.

Cloudsdale is still recovering from the CWF mishap, estimated to cost the city state 3.4 million bits as it recovers from the loss of almost half of the weather facility, Cloudsdale’s largest employer. The Celestia Administration has condemned the sabotage, calling it “extremely reckless”.

Ponyville, now blanketed by rogue snowfall ahead of the original schedule, is also reeling from the calamity. The Ponyville Winter Wrap-Up coordination team has convened and has already marked several areas as “disaster zones”. 

Investigations continue.
