Vehicle Downtown Checked for Bomb Threat
May 07, 2011
Local merchants called police following suspicions of a truck with out-of-state license plates parked near them for several days. The truck was spray-painted with graffiti with one tire flat. There were 4 black 50 gallon barrels observed inside the vehicle. As a precaution, the police bomb squad was dispatched to verify the contents of the cargo. Police Commissioner Jacob Lucio said that this was merely a police procedure without elaborating the need for the bomb squad in the first place. Since the Commissioner denied any findings, the truck was taken away by the city.
