A bomb squad, the FBI and National Guard representatives responded after a homeowner found what looked like a U.S. Army rocket in a tree near Woodstock Tuesday but was actually a hobby model rocket.
The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office responded around 8:20 a.m. Tuesday to the 15300 block of Kishwaukee Valley Road in unincorporated Woodstock for a report of a suspicious incident.
The homeowner had found an object hanging about 30 feet above the ground in a tree, Woodstock Fire/Rescue District Public Information Officer Alex Vucha said.

Public execution for homeowner that called this in is acceptable

Should the sheriff/bomb squad not have been called?
The homeowner had no idea if it was live or where it came from.

Damn, Iran has proved their ability to strike the mainland US. This changes the math in the middle east.

The government isn't using anything with a plastic parachute on it.

Just like the response to the infamous LSU 'noose'

Agreed.
Wouldn't bet my hands or life that some dipshit that already can't control his rocket hadn't been fricking around with this in a malicious intent.

This is yet another example of modern Soy Boy culture. Anyone should take one look at that and know it’s a model rocket. Mainly because kids should be out with their dads shooting those into the sky from the age of 8 to 10. That and building campfires and camping. All skills that modern kids lack. It’s damn sad.

You’d be shocked. Have you done a deep dive into the new asymmetric warfare tech that’s out there now? It’s build it faster and cheaper and get it in the field.

What is this? A rocket for ants?
Posted on 11/12/26 at 11:07 am to RaginCajunz
I could mayyyybe understand a call to the Sheriff to get them to look at it and take it down.
Maybe, but not really.
Who called who in this scenario?
ETA:
In reality I'd probably throw footballs at it until it fell

Woman called sheriff
Sheriff called fire department
Fire department probably didn't want to frick with it and the bomb squad came in.
National Guard Armory was nearby and gave their input FBI probably came in because it was a projectile fired onto someone else's property.
Whole thing took less than 4 hours according to the article.
They probably realized early on what they had, but again, no one was willing to lose digits or worse without verifying.

No, I don't think we need a national response from the military over what's clearly not a real missile.

Good thing it didn’t make a noose.

"If you see something, say something."
"No, not that something."
It was an overreaction, but people have had it drummed into their head over the last 25 years to report anything suspicious.
