Bomb Squad Call-Out in SW Ohio

"PIERCE TOWNSHIP FIRE RESPOND TO A SUSPICIOUS PACKAGE On May 30th our fire department responded to a call in Ohio Township at SR 132 and SR 749, near Marathon for a suspicious device. Since that location is in Ohio Township the Clermont County Sheriff's Office responded to handle the incident along with assistance from Pierce Police and the Cincinnati Bomb Squad. After investigation it was determined that the device the device was not an explosive, but a geocaching container."

The above post is from the Pierce Township Police Department Facebook page. It's never a good idea to place a geocache that looks like a bomb.

Besides looking like a bomb, pvc tubes make lousy cache containers as they always leak.

This is really good advice from the Geocaching Help Center. Please think about how your cache container will be perceived and how people passing will perceive the actions of cachers looking for your hide.

I wonder if the cache owner will be receiving bills for law enforcement and fire call-outs...
