ROSEBUD -- An improvised explosive device (IED) was found and disabled Tuesday night under a bridge near Rosebud.

According to Falls County Constable Richard Aleman, two juvenile boys were hunting for rabbits late Tuesday evening when they noticed suspicious items under a bridge near Farm to Market 1963. The boys notified one of their parents, who is former military personnel, and he contacted the fire department.

The fire department arrived and determined that the packages were possibly IEDs. The McLennan County Bomb Squad was called in and arrived at the scene at approximately 10:00 p.m. An agent from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrived at approximately 11:30 p.m.

The MCSO bomb squad was able to x-ray three "suspicious devices" which included a plastic bottle wrapped in duct tape, a fuse-type detonator device, and a cooler. X-rays revealed there were shotgun shells and an unidentified liquid inside the bottle.

Well, why don’t you guess your way to Rosebud?

On a more serious note, glad they found it. Good gosh.

Agree, sounds amateurish. I guess the nature of the fuse will define the level of technology. I think I’d ask the kids that found it a few more questions.

Rosebud is near Waco and Ft. Hood.

About 25 years ago, there was a huge billboard in Waco put up by the muzzy society. Gave me the creeps even back then.
