Happy Halloween, all hell broke loose around here tonight.

I'll start with the least weird of the night's incidents, a third-floor window on Central Street, near the intersection with Merrimack, that mysteriously blew out tonight, showering glass down onto Central Street across from the Old Court.

Police said it doesn't appear to be vandalism, and may have just been due to pressure that built up with last night's high winds.

No one got hurt, but as you can see here the sidewalk on Central Street downtown really got showered with glass.

I'm glad I wasn't standing there at the time.

I initially thought Halloween hijinks, but apparently there was no evidence of that, plus the window is three floors up, and it would have taken one heck of a throw to do this.

Considering what else happened tonight, I didn't have much time to pursue this.
