Friday, February 24, 2012 @ 1:38 PM
Prince George, B.C. – Prince George RCMP have one person in custody in connection with the discovery of a homemade explosive device during execution of a search warrant on South Kelly Street. 

 

A hand gun and an explosive device were located after the Prince George RCMP’s Crime Reduction Team executed a search warrant at a residence in the 200 block South Kelly Thursday afternoon.
Subsequent search of the property found a .22 calibre hand gun and an improvised (homemade) explosive device (IED). Both were seized without incident.
This morning one adult female was located and arrested as a result of the search.
This investigation is a part of a larger, on-going investigation. Although no charges have been recommended at this time, investigators are hopeful there will be charges forthcoming.

Was the gun registered? Was it stolen in a breakin? Or was it smuggled in from the states? What kind of IED? Did these fools have a criminal history? Names? Hopefully these answers will be forthcoming once the investigation wraps up. Seems we keep hearing about all these guns seized but never hear the origin of same.

A teeny little left over firecracker from Holloweeny is considered an “explosive device”. So there.

Some one say IED? Gadzooks, folks. With all those millions of pot holes in PG to plant one in, how will we ever know where?

Harbinger a firecracker is not a “home made explosive device”. It is a firecracker. And I’m willing to bet that there are at least as many unregistered guns in this country as there are registered, maybe a lot more.
