Police Blow Up Suspicious Device In Boston
The bravery never seems to end in Boston Massachusetts, the home state of what many of us otherwise feel is the greatest known threat to our national security, Senators Ted Kennedy and John Kerry. Alright, well maybe that’s political hyperbole, but nevertheless, last Wednesday, Boston police once again fearlessly saved the city and civilization as we know it by blowing up a traffic counter.
WBZ Boston has the story and gives us a glimpse at the tense moments. To see the video of this heroic act – click here or here for the video on “MyFox 25 News Boston.”
Actually, the video at “My Fox 25 News Boston” video is quite comprehensive…

Police Blow Up Suspicious Device In Boston
(WBZ) BOSTON There were some tense moments in Boston's financial district Wednesday morning as police were forced to blow up a suspicious device.
The bomb squad shut down busy Devonshire Street after someone spotted a green box chained to a no parking sign.
The box turned out to be some kind of traffic counting device and was completely harmless.
Can you remember the terrorism scare in Boston of several weeks ago:
