Authorities responding to report of man with bomb discover runner with weight vest and iPhone
What began as a report of a man walking down FM 706 in Hudson with a bomb strapped to his chest Tuesday morning ended in the discovery of a man jogging with a weight vest and his iPhone.
According to Hudson Police Chief Jimmy Casper and Angelina County Sheriffs Office Sgt. Sergio Luna, around 7:30 a.m. law enforcement received a report of man dressed in all black walking down FM 706 with a bomb strapped to himself. "The woman was very descriptive in the information she gave us - white wires going down to a white box.", Hudson Police Chief Jimmy Casper said following the incident.
Angelina County Sheriff Greg Shanches said that although the incident ended up not being a safety concern, he applauds the public for paying attention."We're just glad that people are aware of their surroundings," the Sherriff said.
