"At 11:30 p.m. on May 12, 2014, the University of Virginia police department responded to a report of attempted abduction...An eleven year old victim reported that she was grabbed from behind as she was attempting to enter her residence at approximately 4:30 p.m. on May 12, 2014. The suspect fled the area in an unknown direction after grabbing her and holding her against a wall."
The description of the incident and requests for information are followed by this sentence:
"The tips noted below will help families keep children safer," and several lines of advice.
"Fearless innovation." That's what the Baxalta ads at the Kendall MIT train station say. Is it courageous or other than archaic to stalk and attack a child or anyone else who is smaller than you are? Who thinks that it is? The President of the United States? Why does he think that? What has happened to the world that he thinks that?
