The well-known "Comedy Club" in Taipei was attacked by an individual who threw three "white paint and feces" bombs at the venue. Taipei police formed a task force and arrested one accomplice yesterday, followed by the arrest of the mastermind, a man surnamed Guo, today. The Zhongshan Precinct stated that they received a report at 6:47 PM yesterday regarding the attack on the shop on Fuxing North Road. Surveillance footage helped identify the suspects. Guo confessed that he was dissatisfied with the club frequently mentioning cross-strait issues and the difficulty of booking tickets, leading him to throw the bombs. Police are conducting digital forensics on Guo's phone to determine if there were any instigators. The club stated on Facebook, "Comedy can accept criticism, but we absolutely do not accept threats."
