Actually, thats legit, not hysteria. Phoenix has now had three flashlight-bombs by some mad-bomber fanatic, and that one was right outside a PD building.

Although the mad Flashlight Bomber has been using yellow flashlights so far:

And like everything else in this country of mewling cowards, a flashlight bomb happens, and then every flashlight is a threat.
There’s brave and then there’s foolish. If I were a paramedic retrieving the body parts of a person who picked up an abandoned flashlight knowing full well that there had been several recent unsolved bombings involving flashlights, I’d be fighting the urge to nominate him for a Darwin Award.
And that steel casing creates shrapnel that could kill/maim bystanders, so if an individual decided not to be intimidated, he’d be taking risks involving other people beside himself.
Phoenix has been having problems with flashlights converted to bombs.

are we sure it wasn’t a fleshlight?
I spent a few minutes with it and can confirm it’s not a fleshlight.
You know, that looks like a MagLite brand flashlight, favored among first responders for their durability. So potentially a cop drops his flashlight outside the PD and it’s suddenly a “suspicious” flashlight?
Flashlights are the second leading cause of death in my area, after clown attacks.
