Terrorist Alert Sounded at Chemical Weapon Facility
CNSNews ^ | 9/5/02 | Daniel Guido

Posted on 09/05/2002 12:34:25 PM PDT by Tumbleweed_Connection

A terrorist alert has been sounded at the Deseret Chemical Depot in Toole County, Utah, where nerve agents are stored and destroyed. The reason for the alert is not yet clear, but broadcast reports say an intruder was seen within the facility's gates early this morning. Sheriff's deputies have blocked traffic around the depot and that the Utah Department of Public Safety was using a helicopter to search around the depot. The facility is about 45 miles southwest of Salt Lake City. It is where the government has been destroying chemical weapons since 1996. It recently completed the destruction of the nation's largest stockpile of sarin nerve gas, one of the most deadly known to man.

Thanks -- I thought this was where it had happened but the way they pronounced the location left me wondering.

If I see that girl one more time on Fox that won some competition instead of real news I am going to scream!!!

I tend to agree...anyone who doesn't do a surch before psoting should be flagged.

That's a navel term for you landlubbers.
