A thirty-seven year old man has been taken into police custody after going on a rampage with a stapler in the busy staff offices of Victoria University in Wellington. It is alleged that the suspect assaulted twenty fellow staff and faculty workers in an attack following a dispute over office feng shui.

“He just came at us,” said Evelyn Jacobs, who works on the same floor as the suspect. “We all heard clicking and then suddenly I realized my boss had been stapled. Some of us jumped under our desks and a secretary of our offices tried to make it out into the hallway to get help. I heard clicking and covered my ears. I don’t know how I made it into the stair well. Everyone was screaming.”

Police and emergency services rushed to the scene and the area was cordoned off. For five hours police negotiators tried to talk the man down. The siege ended around 8PM EST, when the suspect unloaded half a box of 3/8 inch Swingline heavy-duty staples into his own head.
