Shopping Scripts 101: Place Suspicious Briefcase In Literary Agent's Office, Provoke Bomb Scare
Delivering a script to a literary agent is simple, right? Convincing the agent to actually read the script instead of tossing or shredding the million dollar story is the hard part, correct? One man went to drastic delivery and persuasion measures this morning.
A suspicious briefcase was discovered in a literary agent's Beverly Hills office around 9:15am on Thursday, prompting the evacuation of dozens of people from nearby businesses and a police bomb squad investigation, reports Huffington Post.
After blown open by the squad, the briefcase reportedly contained a script that a man had been shopping (unsuccessfully) to the literary agent.
Police are questioning the suspect.
