Around 1 AM CST this morning, the facility had suffered a major catastrophic event which resulted in an extensive loss of life and damage to the overall infrastructure. For reasons that are still being investigated, the power to the facility had been cut. The emergency generators were supposed to have kicked in though they never did. Because of that, all of the doors to the patients’ rooms had been unlocked but all of them, except for Patient #73104-921 (Apollo Glint), were asleep around that time. Both security teams were put on high alert but weren’t prepared for what was to follow.
According to one surviving member of Security Team Alpha (Aegis Zeal), they found Mr. Glint in a room with three other patients that were confirmed to have been killed by him. He was also reported to have been eating from one of the dead bodies. When approached, his Magic Suppression Ring was reported to have been absent from his horn. Then, according to testimony from Mr. Zeal, his magic erupted, causing Stoneheart to explode in a messy cloud of red. From there, he proceeded to massacre the remaining members of Sec Team Alpha, save for Mr. Zeal who was knocked unconscious during the chaos.
After that, Mr. Glint proceeded to move throughout the rest of the facility, killing anypony his eyes could see. Once the screaming started, some of the staff and patients were able to escape through various methods but the rest weren’t so lucky. Eye witness reports from both staff and patients indicated that his eyes were a deep glowing red and a black aura surrounded him. This was a sign that the entity identified as Mr. Skull had taken full possession of Mr. Glint and decided to go on a rampage throughout the facility. It was theorized that Mr. Skull was waiting for his moment to act like he was planning for weeks.
Dr. Farsight had stayed the night in order to get some extra analysis work in and woke up around ten minutes after the event had started. He intercepted Mr. Glint in the hallway between C and D Wing, armed with a taser, tranquilizer gun, and a syringe with a potent sedative. He attempted to negotiate with Mr. Glint in order to bring a non-violent resolution to the situation to no effect. He struggled a bit with Mr. Glint before Princesses Celestia and Luna arrived with a contingent of royal guards and managed to subdue the patient in question with Celestia managing to bring Mr. Glint back from the possession.
Unfortunately, it didn’t last long as Mr. Glint started to convulse while screaming that Mr. Skull was trying to control him once more. According to testimony from one of the guards, Mr. Glint snatched a knife from one of his comrades and ‘attempted’ to lunge at Celestia’s neck with it, only to be fatally wounded by the others in her defense. Shortly after, Patient #73104-921 (Apollo Glint) has been declared deceased through a combination of ten stab wounds and blood loss. There were many theories as to why he tried to attack Celestia but the more probable was SBG (Suicide By Guard). Mr. Glint’s next of kin shall be notified of his death.
In light of this incident, the facility has been shut down for the next three months in order to assess and repair the damage done. The surviving patients have been sent to nearby facilities and all surviving employees shall be given paid vacation until the facility is back to optimal operational conditions. As for the case pertaining to Mr. Glint, the board is inclined to declare it closed in light of Mr. Glint’s death but the final decision on that matter is ultimately left up to Dr. Farsight’s decision. He is expected to continue the investigation to determine the cause and background of Mr. Glint’s condition and that of Mr. Skull.
Also, the funerals for Parchment Scribe and Aurora Dream have been set to take place two weeks from this report’s posting. All employees are encouraged to attend.
