They found no explosives. It appears to be canisters of Co2 similar to ones used for paintball.

DULUTH — Police on Monday evacuated the area around a busy gas station near Gwinnett Place Mall after someone spotted a possible bomb in the parking lot.
Bomb squad technicians from the Gwinnett Police Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit were called to QuikTrip at 3495 Satellite Blvd. to investigate the suspicious device at 8:45 a.m. They found a cylindrical, multi-colored device that was the size of a mini-flashlight in the parking lot near the store, said Officer Darren Moloney, spokesman for the Gwinnett County Police Department
Police evacuated the business and shut down Satellite Boulevard and Merchants Way. The device was detonated safely after about an hour, Moloney said. Authorities were still trying to determine the contents and purpose of the device.
“We’re going to be doing some processing at our headquarters,” said Moloney. “More advanced chemical testing and processing will be done at the GBI crime lab.”
Moloney said the device was too small to have posed a risk to people in the area.
Thanks for the update.
Do you recall the paint ball stuff in a garage yesterday's report, in Georgia as I recall, this is the post (2369) that says it "was paintball stuff"?
I thought it connected to terror, but could not recall the details, now in the middle of the opening post on this Malkin thread, she mentions the "Virginia Paint Ball jihadii's".
2362 & 2363 were our posts and this 2369 here at T.M.
The Malkin thread is interesting:
