“Dynamite-Shaped Object Sparks Evacuation In N.J.”

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “(CBS News) WEST ORANGE, N.J. An area that included the Edison National Historic Site was evacuated Monday, but what authorities first called a suspicious device turned out to be a novelty item designed to look like two sticks of dynamite attached to an alarm clock, police said.

The object, found around 10:30 a.m. in a pile of household garbage next door to a propane business, was destroyed by the Essex County bomb squad as a precaution, West Orange police spokeswoman Amy Simon said.

“They blew it apart. There was no explosion,” Simon said.

It was soon determined that the object — made of two wooden dowels — posed no threat, she said. “

Sorry, I saw Orange and thought Orange County.
That last incident was Orange, New Jersey.
