ROANOKE COUNTY, Va. – Police are investigating a “suspicious device” found at the Villages at Garst Creek in Roanoke County on Monday afternoon.
Bomb technicians took an X-ray of the device and found two improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and three sticks of dynamite. Crews are working to neutralize the IEDs.
Prior to this discovery, authorities said they evacuated some nearby apartment units “out of an abundance of caution.”
This incident started when maintenance staff found a small safe sitting outside on the apartment complex property. When they cut the safe open, they found something suspicious in it, so they called the police, according to authorities on scene.
Authorities still don’t know who made the device or left it at the apartment complex.
State police are also responding to this incident.
This is a developing story. 10 News has a crew at the scene working to learn more. Check back for updates.
