CAPITOLA BOMB SCARE-10/6/14-1831-PMD

THE SANTA CRUZ COUNTY SHERIFF’S BOMB SQUAD EXAMINED A SUSPICIOUSLY PLACED PACK BACK IN CAPITOLA YESTERDAY (SUNDAY).   SHORTLY BEFORE 10:30 A-M THE UNATTENDED PACK WAS CALLED IN AS A POSSIBLE EXPLOSIVE DEVICE BECAUSE OF ITS LOCATION AT THE BACK OF THE CITY HALL BUILDING, AND ALSO BECAUSE CAPITOLA WAS HOSTING A TRIATHLON SPORTING EVENT AT THE TIME. CONCERNS IN THE WAKE OF THE BOSTON MARATHON BOMBINGS PROMPTED ROAD CLOSURES AND NIXLE ALERTS TO RESIDENTS, UNTIL THE BACK PACK WAS DEEMED SAFE.   ROADWAYS WERE RE-OPENED AT ABOUT 1 P-M
