Some residents began receiving an emergency alert message on Saturday stating, “Ballistic missile threat inbound to Hawaii. Seek Immediate shelter. This is not a drill.” Taking to Twitter, UFC flyweight Louis Smolka first offered a message concerning the matter.
“Is this missile thing real?” The fighter stated.
