Y'know that scene where there is a huge TV screen in a bar, and everyone is obviously watching a soccer match? Something amazing happens on the TV, and a beer shower mosh pit ensues.
I'm going to do a one-man version of that when the emergency broadcast comes across.
We had same in NE Indiana... alert for a shooting. Coworkers and myself have never heard of the city/state sending an alert for a shooting suspect. It wasn’t “active shooter at x location” it was just the name of the guy and saying he’s wanted for a recent shooting.
Kinda weird.
Made weirder by rest of you. What time frame was it for everyone? I believe ours was around 11am if I recall
Weirdest part is I’m on T-Mobile and didn’t get a message, my coworker (who is one of “us”) got the alert on his iPhone (6 or 7, older model) and it isnt linked to a phone service, has no SIM card or cell service, just on WiFi at work and his WiFi when at home, no google voice number or anything.
Ha ha ha, the entire office here did the same thing. I heard it going off in a few offices and then looked at my phone that was on silent. We were thinking it was go time. PA here
Are you in PA?
Same i also got one about the same time
Northeast PA here
Yeah. We all thought it was time

Testing the system?
They have a test message.
Remember when hawaii sent out the nuke emergency instead of the test alarm. Twice!
Wasn't there an Argentinian sub that went missing at the time of that "accidental" alert?
Possibly ?
