Responding to several calls regarding a suspicious-looking individual lurking outside a Midtown office building, police released a man today after finding only a copy of J.D. Salingers 1951 novel The Catcher In The Rye in his backpack, sources report. We had received complaints of an individual with a strange look in his eyes loitering near the building, but fortunately a search of the mans backpack yielded nothing more than some old book, said Officer Pete Silvani, referring to the mans dog-eared copy of Salingers seminal work that reportedly contained hundreds of annotations, drawings, and frequent highlighting of the words children and innocence. In light of this, we determined that he posed no threat to the public and, per his request, directed him to the nearest hardware store. At press time, the suspicious man was seen rapidly approaching actor Greg Kinnear.
