Since the now accepted explanation for the incident is that it was caused by sewer gas, how did he explain the police’s role in solving the case?

p.s. panel #5 underneath the pie chart, it says “15% Fa”…..and underneath that, “statistics”(obviously). So 15% ‘Fart’ Statistics?! It does look like (pie chart) pacman is letting it rip from the other side! LOL
