City Saved From Destruction By A Bunch Of Crap

A suspicious bag shut down the intersection of Broad & Spring Garden earlier today, causing drivers to go on detours of up to and including one block.

Anyway, they blew it up and everything is a-okay or something. And here’s what it was:

A bomb squad officer remarked the bag contained only “a bunch of crap,” according to a person at the scene.

Hey, at least it wasn’t a bike with a This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb sticker on it.
