Carrying a Concealed Burrito

Clovis NM was all shook up Thursday after a report of a student carrying a suspicious looking package (h/t Instapundit):

A call about a possible weapon at a middle school prompted police to put armed officers on rooftops, close nearby streets and lock down the school. All over a giant burrito.

Someone called authorities Thursday after seeing a boy carrying something long and wrapped into Marshall Junior High.

The drama ended two hours later when the suspicious item was identified as a 30-inch burrito filled with steak, guacamole, lettuce, salsa and jalapenos and wrapped inside tin foil and a white T-shirt.

"I didn't know whether to laugh or cry," school Principal Diana Russell said.

It's obvious that the answer to this problem is...burrito control. Of course if burritos become criminal, only criminals will have burritos, and that could be a problem for all of us Mexican food lovers.
