Police have locked-down a section of Westland, Michigan near Detroit as the bomb squad has been called in to handle a developing situation at the town’s city hall. The Michigan State Police bomb squad has been called to the scene, reported WJBK Monday afternoon, and at least two schools in the area have been placed on precautionary lockdown. Reportedly, a man entered Westland City Hall with explosives, but the police have declined to comment further other than telling local media there’s “a situation.” “We heard there’s a bomb situation at City Hall,” Kristen McRae, who works at Griffith Veterinary Hospital near City Hall, told the Detroit Free Press. “We have a chopper flying above. There’s a heavy police presence.” “I heard it’s a hostage situation,” an employee of a nearby Boston Market restaurant added. Westland, MI is located around 16 miles west of Detroit and is the tenth largest city in the state of Michigan. [link to rt.com] |

Why would anyone put a pressure cooker in luggage? Especially with the baggage charges most airline impose. Posting would be cheaper.
