"Balloon Boy"
Police in Colorado, USA, are to charge a man who started a massive emergency rescue operation for his son. It seems the search may have been nothing more than a publicity stunt. Richard Heene, the man in question, had the emergency services scrambling after a giant helium-filled balloon on Thursday. He told the police his six-year-old son was inside the balloon. The chase for the balloon was live on American television. Millions of TV viewers were glued to their sets as helicopters and patrol cars pursued the UFO-shaped balloon. Flights were cancelled at the Denver International Airport. The balloon eventually came down in a field. Police officers dashed to it to rescue the boy, but no one was inside.
Mr. Heene is an amateur scientist and inventor. He is shocked that people think it was all a publicity stunt. He appeared on the Larry King show and said he was appalled people thought it was all a big joke. His version of events is that his son crawled into a small compartment beneath the balloon. The balloon then broke free from where it was tied in the garden and floated away. Suspicions arose when the boy, named Falcon, stated he had hidden for four hours in a small attic above the garage. Police believe Mr. Heene was seeking publicity. Sherriff Jim Alderden told reporters: "We do anticipate...there will be some criminal charges filed in respect to this incident." Heene told reporters it was “absolutely no hoax”.
