The hostage crisis at Perthville Ridge Scout Camp entered its second day, as desperate authorities called in Perthville’s leading Hostage Negotiator in a last bid attempt to resolve the impasse.

Furious Scouts rioted, mutinied, rose up and took their Akela hostage, after he ordered them to the showers to wash off a week’s dirt.

“The stench was unbelieveable,” he told Perthville Times’ reporter, before the rampant Scouts confiscated his phone, and tied him in a tent. “They threatened to shave off my moustache, and cover my head with honey ants.”

There are unconfirmed reports that the Scouts are also demanding 100 cream buns.
