A Crash Blossom for Your Morning

[gnomi]

This morning's hard-copy Boston Globe had the following headline on a story about recent violence in Dorchester (they changed the headline for the online version):

Police Bear Down After Killing

mabfan and I had a conversation about the police bear and what might have happened to make the bear so sad.

(For more on crash blossoms, see this "On Language" column or Wikipedia.)

That's how I read it, too. Killed, or injured, which is a bit less depressing.
