LAPD bomb squad seen travelling east on 10 Freeway toward ONT
Earlier this afternoon, a convoy including the LAPD Bomb Squad and several blacked out SUVs was spotted travelling at a high rate of speed east on the 10 Freeway toward Ontario.
There's been plenty of speculation as to why, but no answers from LAPD, other than a terse statement that the crew was headed to a sensitive situation.
Several Twitter users caught sight of the convoy as well including:
Any thoughts?
Here's some newsroom speculation:
- A situation at ONT, which is technically part of Los Angeles
- Escorting a high level dignitary
- Taking Michael Jackson's body somewhere.
What do you think?

Another secret 'training exercise' that scares the poop out of people like Air Force One over NYC photo op.
last night around 9:30 pm there were cops, detectives, FBI, and LA Swat team in the condo complex Brandy Wine Townhomes on Vineyard and 5th St. They shut down E. Yale and E 5th St. In condo 1960 they shot tear gas and blew holes in the front door. Was this part of the stuff in the article? I want to know what they were doing, but I can't find anything about it.
I saw it!
I was driving east on the 10 from Santa Monica.
There were also a group of helicopters flying above Culver City as seen from the HWY
SCARY!!!
