Bomb found near ethanol plant in central Illinois forces evacuations November 14, 20263:12 PM ETBy
A bomb was found near an ethanol plant in central Illinois, sparking evacuations of those who live near the industrial site as law enforcement officials investigate, authorities said Saturday.
The bomb was found Friday afternoon at the BioUrja Renewables facility in Peoria. While officials say the device has since been "rendered safe," as of Saturday morning, all residents within a 1-mile radius remained under an evacuation notice as officials continued to scour the facility for any other bombs and evidence.
