This is an end of shift statement from Captain Steve Watson to LOCO:

All three arrests at the Econolodge are connected. Suspected gang involvement is still being investigated. Three suspected devices found so far. Preliminary evidence is at least one was a working explosive device/pipe bomb. It has been disabled. Two arrested and booked so far for possession of an explosive device. Bail is set at 500,000. Third arrest was an adult for a juvenile probation warrant and violation. We are still securing the scene. A search warrant has been obtained for their room.

Bomb bot just arrived and there is police presence at the Econo Lodge after three possible pipe bombs were found by an EPD officers conducting a field interview with someone on probation. Five people have been detained. Everyone else was evacuated. EPD PIO Brittany Powell will send out a press release later. EPD is still on the scene tonight.

Sitting in Humboldt County Superior Court daily, I am not even shocked anymore when a Violation of Probation or two or three are charged along with the most recent arrest.
