Martinez The Brownsville Herald BROWNSVILLE - Police are trying to determine who left an IED - or improvised explosive device - on the southbound land of U.S. Expressway 77/83 on Sunday afternoon. A concerned citizen found the device about 4:54 p.m., police spokesman Eddie Garcia said. Authorities shut down the southbound lane of the Expressway from Farm-to-Market Road 1732 to Alton Gloor for about three hours, while the police department's bomb squad checked the device, Garcia said. At about 6:45 p.m. the bomb squad "rendered the device safe," Garcia said. The southbound lane of the expressway was reopened at 8 p.m. Police are investigating how the IED ended up on the expressway. No other details were immediately available. http://www.themonitor.com/news/brownsville-49534-highway-ied.html [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ -------------------------- Want to discuss this topic?
