Maybe someone was just stealing the truck, with the trailer attached and the ammonium nitrate lying in the trailer. He probably doesn't even realize the ruckus he has caused.

I'm taking it that this story is different from the explosive that were stolen at the airport???

Some idiot thief was looking for a free truck and got a load of fertilizer as a bonus. Now what was grand theft auto has turned into a terrorist act fully prosecutable under the patriot act. Stay tuned...

The terrorists are reading and this thinking about how we've let our guard down, again and again.

I've a friend that has a fireworks factory in PA. I've been there many times helping.
After watching that video, I'll call and say hello.
To: RightWhale
From what they showed on the tube, only a ranch/cattle double gate with a cheesy lock and chain as security with signs saying "Explosives - do NOT attempt to extinguish in case of fire".
My guess is they were working on highway construction or maybe mining/ seismic survey project and this was a staging yard. With NO SECURITY!

If they say EXPLOSIVES on the front gate, seems they would have to provide security. At least an old retired guy with a 4-cell flashlight. Isn't that per State statutes?

Yeah, we must insist on Bi-lingual labeling on all explosives. Sheesh. See # 11

But ammonium nitrate isn't explosive until it is prepared, so there may have been no prepared explosives. The worst it would do is cause a rash.

Not familiar with the current regs. but that would seem logical. This kind of stuff must stop.

But the ANFO in questione IS explosive.
It is in 50 lbs. bags that are labeled..EXPLOSIVES.
To: firehunter
Is it ANFO or ammonium nitrate? Did they identify it? ANFO would be an explosive and should have been under guard or lock and key.
