At approximately 5:30pm on October 26, 2009, while driving East on Hwy. 8 towards Turtle Lake, WI, I came upon the scene of what appeared to be a bomb situation. In the early afternoon, according to the onlookers in the Wayne's Cafe parking lot across from the Super America, an unidentified package wrapped in duct tape was found on the exterior of the Super America next to the USPS Mail Box. Law enforcement coordinated off the area and called in the Marathon County Bomb Squad. At 6pm, the bomb squad was attempting to use a robotic arm to remove the object. The following pictures and video were taken by Kirk Anderson of St. Croix Falls, WI. Related Story about the Marathon County Sheriff's Department Bomb Squad www.wsaw.com
