CHESTER, Pa. (CBS) – Chester police are urging vigilance after they found an improvised explosive device, this afternoon, near Amtrak and Septa railroad tracks and the Commodore Barry Bridge. 



Police say the device consisted of two bottles with a yellow liquid inside. They say one had a timer and wires attached by duct tape. 



Police were not sure if the device was really explosive but evacuated the area as a precaution. The Delaware County bomb squad determined that it was and disarmed it.



The device was found about 2 p.m., near third and Reaney Streets. That’s underneath the bridge and not far from the tracks Septa’s Wilmington-Newark line uses.



An investigation is underway.

Again I do not mean to be negative,but it is all to easy for Washington to say they discovered plans for attacks on trains now. And this, they discovered after they captured/killed Osama. So now are they planning on radiating everyone before they get on a train?

They say they captured/killed Osama but the threats still exist and are at heightened alerts. Does their fear mongering ever stop?

Just a thought.........

IMO, it's not fear mongering for the govt. to remind us hundreds, if not thousands, of Muslim terrorists STILL want to kill us.
