Explosives Found At Home In Indiana, Pa.

INDIANA, Pa. (KDKA/AP) ― Emergency personnel in Indiana, Pa., evacuated residents within a 900-foot radius of a home as a precaution after the discovery of explosives in a home.

The Indiana County Emergency Management Agency says the explosives were found at about 9:20 p.m. Saturday at the Philadelphia Street home.

The Allegheny County Bomb Squad was called.

The county hazmat team and police and firefighters went door to door to tell residents to leave. 

A temporary shelter was set up at the West Station along Indian Springs Road in White Township.

Motorists were diverted from surrounding streets while crews waited for the bomb squad.
