Fake Bomb Found at NatGas Transmission Facility in SWPA

Last week a "suspicious item" was found at a natural gas transmission facility in Fallowfield Township in Washington County, PA. It looked like a bomb, an "improvised homemade" device, and was placed into the door of an industrial pipe at the Eastern Gas Transmission facility. The PA State Police and FBI responded to investigate. They later determined it was not explosive, and they removed it. But it certainly looked like it was explosive (i.e. a bomb), which is why they responded.
