Police in the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez say they have detained three men who were pushing a car laden with explosives.

The explosives included two tubes of ANFO, or ammonium nitrate-fuel oil, a potent explosive often used in industry. Officials say the explosives would have caused damage in a 40-yard (meter) radius had they detonated.

The Chihuahua state prosecutors' office said Tuesday that police also found three batteries, two bottles of fuel and electrical wire in the car. It said the men who were pushing the car also had marijuana and guns.

40 yards as the damage radius for ANFO?? If they are counting shrapnel damage, that is not a very big bomb.

Another great reporting job. The information makes no sense, two “tubes” of ANFO?

Do you mean two sticks of packaged ANFO or two bags of ANFO?

ANFO requires a “High Order Explosive” to detonate, a blasting cap won’t do the trick.

Fortunately, Mexicans are poor at planning anything. If they ever get smart enough to hire Chinese, we are finished.

If it happened in this country the left would have rioted against the police if they didn’t help them push the car to a gas station.
