Street artist Free Humanity put a grenade top on the stem of a real apple, hung it up on a tree in the Arts District, and left it. A week later, an ex-marine saw it and called in the LAPD, who called in the bomb squad and had a nearby Gold Line stop shut down. Melrose&Fairfax thinks that was a bit of an overreaction: "if a decorated apple is a threat, what next?" [Melrose&Fairfax, image via]
