“After a group of adults moved out of a south Minneapolis rental house over the weekend, cleaning crews arrived to find some suspicious materials in the closet, and now the FBI are involved.

Neighbors say two women and about four men moved out of a lower apartment unit on the 3000 block of Park Avenue S. on Saturday.

The hired cleaners say they found bundles of maps and blueprints of Minneapolis and St. Paul which appeared to be from the U.S. Army. The blueprints included details such as the thickness of certain building’s walls across the Twin Cities. There was also more than a dozen live ammunition rounds over 12 inches long, the cleaners told police.

Minneapolis Police has cleared out everything from inside the property, and the FBI is now assessing the materials.”

Hmm, now what kind of stupid terrorist, domestic or otherwise would leave something like that, or the maps for that matter, behind?

This stinks like a 3 day old dead fish of Plant. By whom and why, is the question.

A loaded .50 BMG round is just under 5 1/2 inches long.

A 25mm round for the Bushmaster cannon is about 8.3 inches long.

Even the rounds for the mighty GAU-8 Avenger used in the A-10 to kill tanks is only about 11.4 in long.

The rocket from an AT-4 Light Anti-armor Weapon is 18 inches long.
