Suffering Colleagues offered support

A 58 Year old man has been arrested in connection to three deaths in the Dudley Area, West Midlands. The victims, Susan Baker 34, Jim Jones 25 & Kathryn Smith 50 were all found dead in their workplace at a local printing firm based in Dudley. Eye witness reports say the man, Dave Burton was seen boring his three colleagues with his knowledge of proof reading from over 30 years he had spent working as a 'reader'.

Burton, known to the Police as a 'serial pest', had previously admitted to boring four other colleagues into comas but charges were dropped when they all gained consciousness & made full recoveries. Sgt. Terry Wickerstaff of the West Midlands Police said today in a news Conference they were "Pleased to have rid the streets of a fowl predator & serial bore". He also gave tribute to those who had "suffered in silence" & had come forward to offer invaluable evidence.

Burton will be sentenced later this month at Birmingham Crown Court. The Police have set up a support line for anyone affected by the case.
