UPDATED: Murfreesboro Police responded to Home Depot on Old Fort Parkway Monday morning - about 30-minutes into the 10-o'clock hour, after two people found what appeared to be a pipe bomb in the parking lot. The device was found next to the base of a utility pole.
Authorities confirmed the device was labeled, "Pipe Bomb Geocache.”
The MPD quickly cleared the parking lot of any bystanders and blocked roads going into the area while the Tennessee Highway Patrol Bomb Squad arrived to determine if it was an active bomb.
