A concept that incorrectly involved the phrase "gunman" thanks to autocorrect led to the lockdown of two US educational institutions last night.
The two educational institutions in Western Corridor, Atlanta were fixed down by law enforcement for almost two time last night while the "threat" was examined.
Autocorrections in texts can often be very funny, but on this celebration it converted a easy concept into something much more scary.
The concept in concern study "gunman be at west hall today", when the designed concept should have study "gunna be at west hall these days."
The author of the concept must have incorrectly spelled the already doubtful "gunna" – in our own testing an iPhone 4 on iOS 5.0 only came up with "gunman" as a replace "gumma".
Catalogue of errors
In an further display of poor text messaging, the author of the concept even sent it to the incorrect variety.
The concept was actually sent by a student, but revealed to law enforcement by a participant of the Western Corridor group.
Sgt. Stephen Wilbanks of the Corridor Nation Sheriff's Workplace commented: "it was a variety of odd conditions. We want to highlight that the individual did the right factor in confirming the concept."
A session for all you rushed texters out there – examine before you deliver, eh?
