Customer Flattens Cell Towers in Tank
In what sounds a little like a scene out of a certain Mel Gibson movie, an angry Australian has used an armored car to run rampage across the suburbs of Sydney, Australia. The driver of the APC (armored personal carrier), one John Patterson, had accused mobile phone company Telstra, his former employer, of causing him brain damage thanks to radiation from the company's towers. He had filed a medical claim but wasn't happy with its progress, so he took the only reasonable solution: He stole the APC from a local towing company and used it to flatten seven cell towers.
Tina Turner and other Thunderdome representatives were unavailable for comment.

Good thing there's no tank at the local National Guard Armory, or I might do the same thing to AT&T
