YAKIMA, Wash. -- A small pipe bomb exploded when a military team tried to render it safe on Thursday, city police said.

Police were called to the area of North 20th and Englewood avenues about 10:20 a.m. when someone reported finding a suspicious device
on the shoulder of the road.

Police said the device appeared to be a pipe bomb, and a bomb unit from the Army's Yakima Training Center responded.

A small business complex at the southwest corner of 20th and Englewood was evacuated as a precaution.

Police were investigating but had not identified any possible suspects or determined why the device had been left.

Police were investigating but had not identified any possible suspects or determined why the device had been left. Then they ran around in a circle, clubbing each other in the head.
