Maggie Haberman reported that former President Donald Trump's campaign offices were evacuated after being alerted to what officials thought were surveillance devices, which turned out to be a prank.
A police report noted that beeping devices were discovered under a staff member's desk, prompting evacuation of about fifty employees from the Trump campaign offices.
The incident was fueled by paranoia regarding an earlier email hack reported by the campaign this summer, but in reality, it was caused by a $13.97 plastic prank device.
Despite the initial fears and evacuation, the reality was less dramatic than anticipated, akin to a Charlie Chaplin comedy rather than a serious spy thriller as suggested by the concerns.
