‘Pop-bottle bomb’ proves to be harmless

BEAVERCREEK —

A “bottle bomb” found Sunday turned out to be a dud.

Beavercreek Police Sgt. Dave Darkow said the “pop-bottle bomb” was found between the sidewalk and the street at 2893 Wedgewood Ct.

Police called in the bomb squad as a precaution. Darkow said once the device was found to be harmless, police disposed of it.

Darkow said police received calls Saturday evening about “bottle-bombs” being set off in the area. He said this device appeared to be left over from that.

Darkow said that an investigation is continuing.
