Posted: January 14, 2007

In what is thought to be the first confirmed incident of zombification on US soil, a large part of Port Newark, New Jersey, Is cordoned off today. This is following this mornings discovery of an undead dock worker at it's main container terminal. The discovery has sent panic waves reverberating throughout the port authority and local community.

Loader Bernard Hill aged 44, worked unloading international marine containers at the 7 acre site. His wife Joanne Hill contacted Police on Saturday morning after he failed to return home after his shift the night before. When he also failed to report to work Monday, Police launched a search for Mr. Hill.

He was found this morning "wandering and staggering aimlessly" according to New Jersey Port Authority Police spokesperson Lt. James Bohan. "He was between containers. Not really a danger because it was an unused area. Storage mainly. Because he was on his own we were able to surround Him. As soon as it was confirmed he was in a Zombified state, unfortunately we had to terminate him"

Mr. Hills body was taken into quarantine. A private memorial will be held for him on Thursday.

It is thought Mr. Hill first became exposed to the Zombie virus Necro-Mortosis after unloading a container originating from Spain's Canary Islands. These islands are often a destination for South African migrants, desperate to escape from their Zombie infested homelands , often take enormous risks by stowing away in freight containers headed for the USA. It is thought that one of these containers may have carried an infected migrant. If this is the case, the zombie attacker has not been apprehended at the time of going to press.

Lt. James Bohan. went on to say that "The Necro virus is not an airborne virus, and Mr. Hill has not traveled abroad in the last six months. He had a sever laceration on and around the upper torso area. This looks like a Zombie attack. There is another carrier out there somewhere, and we need to find it fast."

Armed protection sought by Dock Workers
East Coast Dock Workers spokesperson Robert Ponticelli released a statement today. "We have been requesting armed protection for our members from the Police, The Port Authority and the Homeland Security. No one seems to be willing to make this commitment. This is the most serious example yet of why there is a case for armed protection". A series of one day strikes are planned to call attention to their demands.

A call requesting comment from the Homeland Security was not immediately returned.
