SEARCH FOR WEREWOLVES CONTINUES

Officials are still looking for the werewolves responsible for Friday night's attacks according to a statement from Regulation and Control of Magical creatures today. So far, field agents have had little luck identifying the culprits. They have confirmed, however, that multiple creatures were involved.

"There are no registered werewolves in the area and we're having a difficult time sorting where they may have come from," lead investigator Grendle Tirsby told us. "We are taking a hard look at our likely suspects - our must unstable cases - and checking there whereabouts on the moon but so far we've found nothing."

The attacks, which left two Muggles and a witch, Berlin Cobbleton, dead occurred separately but all within the town of Scunthorpe. Officials say there was clear evidence of the same multiple creatures working at each scene. The victims appear to have been singled out because they were out of doors when the attacks occurred. Ms. Cobbleton was a known insomniac and appeared to have been tending her garden when she was killed.

The Ministry is discouraging any mass panic but this latest turn of events in subhuman control is certainly troubling to say the least. With creatures like these on the lose, we can only hope Regulation and Control can bring them back under hand before the next full moon.

WIZARD RESCUED FROM MUGGLE MISHAP

Joseph Pinswilly of Swinford, Ireland got himself into a bit of trouble with Muggle law enforcement Wednesday after a carnivorous non-native succulent he'd planted outside of his lot bit off a Muggle's arm and ate a neighbor's cat. When the Muggle law officers attempted to serve warning (they were unable to find Pinswilly or his house as the lot is charmed against Muggles) the plant assaulted them- a point Pinswilly reportedly found quite amusing until the officials fought back and began killing it. At that point Pinswilly emerged from his lot (and suddenly into view) and began sending hexes at the Muggle officials.

Hit Wizards became aware of the situation later that afternoon and were dispatched along with an Obliviator to sort he mess out.

Pinswilly claims to have planted the carnivorous vegetation as added security and says he put it outside his property where Muggles could get to it to stop gawkers and discourage people stopping too long by his lane. In that respect, it may have worked. Pinswilly, however, has been fined for performing magic in front of Muggles and is under investigation for the importation of restricted plant life without a permit.
