Explosive Coffee?
Washington State patrol responded to a phone call on Thursday afternoon from a distressed motorist who believed that someone had planted explosives in his car. Traffic was stopped as Northbound lanes of Interstate 5 were closed while crews responded.
But State Trooper Keith Leary says that the object was nothing more than a container of ground coffee. Officials haven’t reported yet why the man through the coffee was a bomb, but it seems that it might be a good idea to look into the source of his suspicion.
While driving on Interstate 5, the man looked in his backseat and saw the unknown object. He quickly pulled to the side of the road and phoned the authorities, apparently telling them that he sometimes leaves his car unlocked and was worried that the object in his backseat might be an explosive.
The highway reopened later that afternoon–but it’s pretty weird that this guy thought ground coffee was a bomb.
