Persistent writer leaves script in briefcase outside office of literary agent who calls bomb squad
This movie really bombed - but not at the box office.
Los Angeles cops clad in protective suits had to blow up a "suspicious" briefcase Thursday outside the office of a Beverly Hills literary agent.
The LAPD bomb squad feared an explosive was inside - but it turned out to be nothing more than a struggling screenwriter's movie script that the agent couldn't have cared less about.
The writer wasn't around to see his dream blown to bits, but cops were questioning him following the fireworks. Police did not release his name.
