Metalhead graffiti causes terror freakout

By at 9:33 am Wednesday, Dec 20

Bioterrorism officials in a small Arizona town responded to police concerns over white powder in a dumpster with the word "ANTHRAX" scrawled on the side. The substance turned out to be flour, and the dumpster graffiti also included the mysterious words "AC/DC" and "Iron Maiden."
We didn’t get the connection with 'Anthrax' the band at first," a county official said. "The other band names were on the back and not on the same side as the Anthrax one was."
