A bomb was found Friday at a Red Bluff convenience store. At 11:30AM an employee of the Circle K on South Jackson Street called Red Bluff Police. After seeing it, officers called the Shasta County Bomb Team. They transported the item to the Red bluff Airport, X-rayed it, and decided it was a homemade explosive device similar to a pipe bomb. A high pressure water jet was used to break the item apart and make it safe. Surveillance footage from the area around the Circle K is being combed through to find out who left the bomb there. Anyone with information can contact Red Bluff Police at 527-8282.
