This happened about a half mile away from my house:
Police say an interagency homeland security unit is looking for several men seen leaving the area after an explosion damaged equipment at a North Las Vegas construction site.
No injuries were reported, and authorities haven’t said what type of vehicle the men were in.
North Las Vegas police Sgt. Tim Bedwell says the apparent bomb blast left a football-sized hole in the side of a water truck.
Bedwell says several neighbors reported the explosion just after midnight at the construction site near Aliante Parkway and Grand Teton Drive.
He says police didn’t find the source of the noise until construction workers arrived about dawn and found the damage.
The Mrs was heading out to get a bagel and soda early this AM and the police blocked her path and turner her around. Other than what is in the story, we know nothing about what is going on. The water truck, for a while part of our local scenery, is parked in a vacant lot immediately adjacent to a large electric power substation.
Side note: No, I didn’t hear a darned thing.
