FBI trainees goof, nab innocent teen-agers

ELIZABETHTOWN, Pennsylvania (AP) -- Armed FBI trainees in
bulletproof vests and camouflage surrounded a group of teen-agers,
handcuffed them and forced them to the ground before realizing they
had the wrong people.
The trainees were taking part in a training exercise at a town
square Wednesday night in which they were apparently supposed to
nab others taking part in the drill.
Instead, up to 30 FBI trainees jumped out of a caravan of vehicles
and descended on the innocent teen-agers, bound their wrists with
plastic ties and ordered them to lie face-down on the sidewalk.
After about 30 minutes, the agents set the teens free.
The FBI would not comment on the specifics of the drill, but an FBI
official apologized Friday and two agents visited the home of one
of the youths Thursday night to express their regrets.

look at this way: the teenagers have seen first blood; they may be
better prepared for when it is for real
