CBS wary of ‘CSI: Miami’ sniper script
- Share via
The makers of the CBS drama “CSI: Miami” are producing a show in which crime fighters track down a sniper, but the network may postpone the episode because of the real-life shooting attacks around Washington.
The episode currently in production features a forensics team studying crime scenes from an attacker who kills people from atop a building.
“This is one of those bizarre cases where art collides with real life,” CBS spokesman Chris Ender said Wednesday.
The story was conceived in August and a script was delivered last month, weeks before the real attacks began around the nation’s capital. No decision has been made on when it will be broadcast, Ender said.
