🚨KNOXVILLE POLICE AND FIRE
Asking people to evacuate a half mile away after finding large box filled with explosives near Western Avenue bomb squad, and hazmat teams on scene ⚠️
This is happening at CMC Recycling. They are trying to evacuate a 3,000 sq ft perimeter. The box is smoking ... bomb squad is in a wait and see mode because they can't touch the device at this time. They are sending a drone in to get a better assessment. They can't yet confirm what is in the box.
KPD and KFD crews were called to CMC Recycling at 2706 Mynderse Ave. at 2:15 p.m. Oct. 10 in response to a report that employees there had discovered a five-foot-by-five-foot steel box that contained suspected dynamite and was smoking, KPD posted in a statement on Facebook.
During a press conference at 7 p.m. Oct. 10, Knoxville Police Department and Knoxville Fire Department spokesmen said the evacuation announced that afternoon would continue, likely into the next day.
The bomb squad has not confirmed definitively what is in the box that is smoking. “We’re not dealing with some small amount of suspected dynamite. We're dealing with a large amount, and again, still have not definitively determined what this material is, but that is our suspicion at this time,” KPD spokesman Scott Erland said.
