UPDATE 1:00 P.M. - Westbound I-24 between exit 45 and exit 54 in Lyon County is back open to traffic. Eastbound lanes are still closed.

Both sides of the interstate were closed early today due to a possible improvised explosive device in a vehicle.

Kentucky State Police say they have arrested one man and detained a woman.

The Kentucky State Police Hazardous Material Unit is on the scene clearing the device. Once the device is cleared a more detail search of the vehicle will take place.

After they are done searching the vehicle, the eastbound lanes will be reopened to traffic.

Strike-anywhere waterproof matches, bought in bulk with cash? - A joke passed along from Janet Napolitano!

Strike-anywhere matches are now contraband?

My grandmother lit her kitchen stove with nothing but Ohio Blue Tips.

Anyway, I predict that the interstates are about to become the next jihadi hunting ground in America. “Infidels” should regard the highways as a tactical environment & govern themselves accordingly.

“Strike-anywhere matches are now contraband?”

No, Janet Napolitano once put out a flyer to law enforcement explaining what to look for in a domestic terrorist, and it included buying in bulk at Army-Navy stores, paying cash, and buying “survivalist supplies” like strike-anywhere or waterproof matches. Oh and a Gadsden flag or Ron Paul bumper sticker, iirc.

Then I guess my US/Israeli flag sticker with “Genesis 12-3” on it makes me a subversive too.

With all the wrecks & backed up traffic lately on I-24, I-65, I-40 etc, it helps to carry some “prep” supplies for a long wait on interstate. Now we can add traffic lockdown for suspected terrorist activity. Wonderful.

I now carry a CB radio; trucker reports have enabled me to detour several “long parking lot” backups.
