Found the Co-60 outside of it's storage.  Even my t-ball navy nuke training tells me those high jackers are getting the death penalty for this theft.

   Maybe not, this is not the first time this happened in Mexico. We initially installed radiation detectors because of this incident not the threat of terrorism. No one died but a couple of them are sterile now.

THE CORE:
3000 Ci Co-60 what around 18,000 R/hr? Dead in around 1.5 min.
