Early this morning, at precisely 3:33 am, the Shadow Synth band ALTAiR escaped from prison! The band members are considered armed, legged, and dangerous. Do not approach them for any reason. If seen, contact your local police immediately!

According to reports of the incident, the whole operation was orchestrated long before ALTAiR was caught. They even purchased the prison building and changed its name to "ALTAiR" just to mock the police, said local authorities. Hidden passageways were found under the building, as well as secret panels in the walls. It was even discovered that the security cameras were built by ALTAiR, and that at a signal from a remote control, could be made to loop the same scene over and over again.

ALTAiR, being the megastars that they are, were allowed to bring their instruments into their cells to practice, but according to investigators, the instruments doubled as weapons and cutting tools which aided their escape. FBI personnel on location have yet to discover the actual route they took, as no traces have been found. One agent was quoted as saying they must have used "some sort of teleportation device to escape."

Erik "Synthmeister" Rosenbladt, the band's lead synth artist, was interviewed just ten minutes before the escape. "I don't think we did anything wrong. These people are just afraid of success." he said.

Currently, posters of the band are being handed out around the world in hopes that someone may have seen them.
