An 18 year old girl in Mossman, Sydney has had a bomb strapped to her by a belaclava-clad man after he entered her home at 2.30pm this afternoon (EST).
"We are treating the device as live until we know otherwise," assistant commisioner Mark Murdoch said.

What do you guys think about this? Do you think this is related to the Norway attack?

Is it a Sex Bomb?

Nope, it's a bomb that explodes with fire and death.
I don't exactly see how this is funny.

They don't know what it is yet, so for all you know, it might fire off a load of confetti and $10 notes. You're naturally assuming the worst. Stop it. It's sick.

Is it a fail bomb?

Maybe it isn't a bomb at all, but rather, an oddly shaped present from a friendly stranger. Why are you assuming the worst out come.

I know, right. Why do people always assume the worst when a man straps a large ticking device to a teenager?

To be Frank, I can only guess that it is because they're mad at the stranger for not giving them a present aswell.

I just heard about this, actually. Apparently her father is extremely rich and it's some kind of remote ransom attempt.

To be honest I find that a little disappointing, because my very first thought was that there might be some kind of real-life Jigsaw out there. :V

But on a more serious note, I do feel bad for the girl -- it would be a scary situation. Especially since the whole police force can't figure out how to get the thing off, even after this much time.

Edit: Also I just saw your last question, OP. That doesn't even make sense. Of course not.

Recently, a handicapped man held up a post office nearby with a bunch of bombs strapped to his wheelchair or something like that. IIRC they weren't even live explosives. It seems people will do things like that because they never have the plans to follow through. Not saying this is the same case, just pointing out.

The story just popped up on CNN o_o

Hi Frank

So yea, not strapped to the supposed bomb anymore.

Crisis over.

Its how newsmedia works around here. "Bad news is good news and good news is no news."
