HOGSMEADE - More than fifty bodies of dead villagers have been recovered in the aftermath of a brutal and unprovoked attack on Hogsmeade village in Scotland by Death Eaters early yesterday evening. According to witnesses, the attack began shortly after seven o'clock with a siege on the high street--beginning with the Hog's Head Pub--in which most businesses were destroyed structurally or burned down. Death Eaters additionally placed anti-apparation wards on the village, trapping it's inhabitants. Many of those who witnessed the attack say that civilians fought against You Know Who's followers, but were unsuccessful in their attempts to drive them away. No one has yet recounted what ended the siege, and by the time the Department of Magical Law Enforcement arrived on scene, both the Death Eaters and now-dubbed 'civilian heroes' had disappeared, leaving nothing behind but blood and rubble.
