From WYMT
Kentucky State Police's Hazardous Device Team is investigating the discovery of an improvised explosive device (IED) in Harlan County.
Authorities said around 11:00 a.m. Tuesday morning, a man was near the sewage plant in Evarts when he noticed something that appeared to be a bomb.
The man notified a maintenance worker, who then told police. Kentucky State Police and Hazardous Device Team responded to the scene.
WYMT is told the device is indeed an IED and a bomb unit has already safely detonated it.
Police have not said where the IED came from or if anyone is going to be charged.
