the 5PM report added that the driver of the truck was of Arab origin and did not speak english. he was taken into custody my FBI and NCIS and will be questioned at length. Traffic through the main gate was restored at 4:45pm. Federal agencies are not commenting on what was found in the truck.

IMHO, whe were being tested, and they lost. Everyone in this area has been watching for something like this for a long time!

Lesson learned. Next time they'll use another Timothy McVeigh.

Other than your local news, has this story appeared anywhere else in the MSM? Thanks for the report.

This guy did a terrible job of casing the joint. All he had to do was wait till the EM club opened up. Then he could've gotten on base without any hassle.

Ordinary lawn feed would make the dog alert – a pretty good test. They don’t have to be any where near a bomb.

"IMHO, we were being tested....."

Agree completely. I also think that all of these aircraft that "accidentally" fly into unauthorized space are "testing."

Thanks for the info! Looks like all okay now, except for the driver of the truck!

Update:

No threat after Navy shuts down road near sub base

GROTON, Conn. -- The Navy restricted traffic near the Groton submarine base Monday while investigating a potential bomb threat.

A search dog detected a suspicious scent on a truck carrying boxes through the main gate at about 6:30 a.m., the Navy said. The Navy increased base security and asked an explosive team from Newport, R.I., to investigate, said Arianne Anderson, a base spokeswoman.

Early Monday evening, after inspecting the boxes, the Navy determined there was no threat and reopened the road to traffic.

"Our established security procedures and threat response worked well today," said Capt. Sean Sullivan, the base commander.
