WALLA WALLA--Hundreds of pounds of explosives were stolen from the Port of Walla Walla.

Nearly 100 lbs of TNT, 17 sticks of dynamite, 17 hundred feet of detonation cords, rocket black powder, blasting caps, and much more was taken.

It’s enough explosives to do serious damage.

“Immediately we all think the worst possible scenario, we fear the worst possible scenario and that's why we're working it so hard, is we want to prevent that from happening if that's the intent,” Jessie Summers from ATF said.


Has anyone else heard about this yet?????????????

1. It's also enough explosives for some serious construction work . . .
odd, that some people will see terror in a situation that could be nothing more than felony theft by an unscrupulous businessman in an attempt to keep down costs.
