Geocache Causes Bomb Scare in Ottawa

A geocache near a bus rapid transit station in Ottawa triggered a bomb scare that led to a four-hour shutdown of a major boulevard last week, CBC News reported on Monday. Police detonated the package, and are asking geocachers to make sure their packages don’t look suspicious; a local geocacher argues that caches should be clearly labelled and in transparent packaging.
