Reports are that the car (early reports was that it was a van) was from Florida and passing through SC and was pulled over by chance. The explosive devices were in the trunk... apparently the FBI is now involved....

There was something similar farther north on the I-95 corridor within the past couple months...I just can’t recall when and where.

Muzzies probing our response.

Oh horrors! The cops must have been “profiling” when they made this stop!

There you go again, jumping to conclusions. We don't know yet why these middle eastern looking men were carting explosives, but we have ruled out terrorism.

BREAKING NEWS: Bomb Scare In Goose Creek

UPDATED; Live 5 News

Police in Goose Creek are investigating a bomb scare.

Highway 176 near Crowfield Boulevard and Old Mt. Holly Road has been shut down.

Sources tell Live 5 News that police stopped a four-door sedan during a routine traffic stop and found what they believe was a bomb inside the vehicle.

Witnesses on the scene told Live 5 News that they believed the car had an out-of-state license plate, but they could not be sure which state the tags were issued from.

Sources also say that there were two people in the car and that they were of Middle Eastern decent.

The FBI is working with local authorities in the investigation. There is no word at this point of when they will reopen the highway.

Could be huge, could be nothing. Could be huge and the press will tell us it is nothing, move along. But let's remember that there is always wrong information contained within the first reports.
