Radioactive Material On Its Way To Kilgore (Texas) Is Missing
KLTV ^ | 11/19/05 | Bob Hallmark


It made stops in Abilene, Austin, Dallas and Tyler and somewhere along the way radioactive material came up missing before it got to East Texas. A New Mexico agency is hoping that someone in Texas can help them solve a mystery of some missing radio active material, that did not reach its destination in Kilgore.

Workers at ProTechnics in Kilgore were immediately alarmed when earlier this month a military style ammo box that contained radio-active material, turned up missing on a shipment from New Mexico.

The FBI is investigating the theft of the shipment. Investigators believe two vials of antimony-124, a radioactive material used in the oil and gas industry, were stolen before the truck got to Kilgore.

--The material is not considered a terrorist threat because of the small amount involved.

amount involved. <<<

What a joke, do they honestly think that no one can add the amounts that are now missing?
