ABC News Affiliate WTVG - Channel 13 (Toledo, OH) ^ | October 27, 2010 | None Shown

Toledo, OH (WTVG) -- Some parts of the Safety Building downtown were under quarantine Tuesday evening as several police officers underwent decontamination by hazmat crews. It began as a domestic violence 911 call to the 4700 block of Douglas. Responding officers found some highly toxic chemicals inside the home. Toledo police say officers seized mushrooms and a cultivation of castor beans, used to make the chemical ricin. Hazmat was called. As a precaution, the half dozen officers exposed to the chemical underwent a decontamination process. None exhibited any signs of abnormalities. FBI agents from Detroit are on the scene and federal agents have landed in Toledo from Virginia. Police are not releasing many details on the investigation. Thomas David Wineinger is in custody, but there is no word on what charges he may face.

Thanks. I guess breaking to me is breaking. It doesn’t say “breaking national news,” it just says “breaking.”

I’ll try to remember.

This reminds me of a story that happened near me. Police were called to a home (about 3 miles from my house) on a domestic. The lady showed them hubby’s meth lab in the basement. YOW. The house was right in the middle of an upscale suburban development. Neighbors were clue-less! I’m glad my neighbors aren’t that close to me. Just shows you how insulated we are in today’s modern world.

Everytime I read stories like this, the person was planning something pretty bad. This guy had enough to do some serious damage. I wish there was more info on this.

I know. At first I was thinking it was going to be a Muslim. Toledo is very close to Detroit, Michigan.

At least the thread made it to 20 before spurious Muslim speculation was mentioned--and you held back waiting for confirmation! In the past, FReepers consistently made asses of themselves in 3 or so!

Small world. That house is set back from the street, but I’ve been through there many times and have eaten at the place across the street.

Well, admittedly, my mind did go that route. Again, thinking of Detroit and the recent news items and the election coming up.

Like you said, better to have some facts first.

Ward Churchill, “Indian” Professor at Univ Colorado with questionable Indian heritage. Claimed the folks killed in the World Trade Centers were ‘little Eichmanns’ who deserved their fate. Your basic Liberal fool in a faux-ivory tower.
