One-Ton Car Bomb Safely Neutralized
(MSNBC) - Civilian volunteers serving with the police spotted two suspicious vehicles speeding down a dirt road leading from the West Bank into Israel at 2 a.m. Thursday. When stopped, the occupants fled and police discovered one of the biggest bombs ever found, consisting of about 1,350 pounds of explosives, plus two barrels containing fuel and metal fragments, attached to a cellular phone for detonation. The car bombing was probably planned to coincide with the Jewish New Year, which begins Friday.
