Gag Grenade Evacuates World Financial Center

So you may have seen (literally if you work in the city) that a Nomura employee brought a gag grenade into the building today. Apparently, according to Bloomberg, this employee has been placed on administrative leave. I don't have a link to the exact article because I just saw it come across. This is the story from WSJ, quote I copied off bloomberg

A gag grenade mounted on a plaque that said "Complaint Department: Pull Pin" sent occupants of the building into the street today, according to the New York Police.

So monkeys, what is the craziest thing someone ever brought into your office?
