Humpty Dumpty Strikes Again
The so-called "Humpty-Dumpty Killer" has been terrorizing the Old City, with his trademark method of pushing victims from high elevations. Law enforcement officials worry that this may be spawning "copycat" killings, and advise travelers to exercise extreme caution when using elevated public transportation during the night-cycle. Last night, eight victims were flung from the monorails. None survived the fall, bringing the total confirmed death toll to forty-five so far.
CSS Chief Julian Brenner had this to say: "I can't divulge details of our investigation, but we believe that this is the same serial murderer that was active in San Dorado on Mars two years ago. In the meantime, citizens are advised not to travel alone on the monorails during the night-cycle, and to report any suspicious activity to the nearest available law enforcement officer."
Inquisitor Kane said, "This Heretical activity is another sign of the Darkness working amongst us. Only by faith in the Cleansing Flame of the Cardinal and the Purifying Light can we be saved from the Darkness, and the clutch of the evil that lurks within each of us. There but by the Grace of Durand go I."

Cybertronic Silences Lunar Voice
Virgo Multimedia, a subsidiary of Cybertronic Investments Incorporated, bought out the Lunar Voice, a long-running news magazine published by the Quigley family. Editor Dik Quigley was not available for comment.
This move was revealed while the Lunar Voice was putting together a special "all-Cybertronic" issue, purporting to reveal the "dirt" on the fifth megacorporation. Cybertronic spokesman Walter Wilberg, VP of Public Relations, insists that this is entirely coincidental, and their move resulted in no censorship whatsoever on any articles printed in the Voice.

Royal Serenity to Meet With Mishiman Overlord

Tanaka To Retain Position
In a surprise move after announcement of his plans to retire as the head of Tanaka Electric, Chairman Hiroshi Tanaka has decided to stay at the helm for a few more years.
"This is my opportunity to leave a legacy for my children," said Tanaka, prompting speculation on his mental stability, since he has only one surviving son, Hikaru. His two other sons, Toshi and Takara, died in the service of Lord Heiress Mariko in conflicts on Mars.

"Trombone" Back in the Band
Tommy "Trombone" Trovato has been released from Ryker Maximum Security Penitentiary, his life sentence for manslaughter shortened for "good behavior". The "Trombone" is so-nicknamed because of the allegation that his weapon of choice is the Capitol-manufactured M606 light machine gun, fired from a moving vehicle during "drive-by shootings". The "Trombone" has ties to House Borgia of the Bauhaus corporation, and there have been allegations of involvement in organized crime.

Maltese Falcon On Display
The legendary Maltese Falcon will be on display at the Lunar Museum of Cinematography for a limited engagement. Even though the ancient movie prop is not made of any precious materials, "its historic and sentimental value is priceless," said Chief Curator Brandon Gestalt, and the display will be under tight security.
