Re: West Virginia, Ohio River: Suspicious explosive devices found on barge / Tug Boat
This is the second time in just a few days that the bomb squad has found an improvised explosive device on the river in the Mid-Ohio Valley.

Here's the article from 10/22/21. Only a few days before.

Homemade Bomb on Barge Dismantled by West Virginia Police, No Suspects Yet.

Second one in a week, but why a barge loaded with gravel?

Trying to take out a bridge or a dam?

More likely to try and disrupt shipping channels. If they sunk a barge in one on if the dry docks, it’d screw up movement of goods along the River.

Goods?

Only one commodity on the Ohio and Kanawha rivers...

Coal.

I live in that river valley and I have not heard of this yet.
I will have to buy a paper today.
There is a lot of barge traffic in this area.
Where did the barges come from?

Hi neighbor.

Haven't heard anyone say where they came from, but the first one was near the Pleasnts/Wood county line, so near Willow Island dam.

They haul more than coal. In the 70s a gasoline barge exploded after hitting a bridge and broke most of the windows downtown.

Now it's three times this week, another one was found overnight.

All in the same stretch of the Ohio river and near Marietta, Ohio.

Someone is making a persistent effort.

My first thought was how close is that to where Joe Manchin's houseboat is moored and was surrounded by Antifa goons?

But, nope:

[link to www.washingtonian.com (secure)]

Its value is relatively modest for a DC residence. Manchin bought the boat at a fire-sale price of $220,000 but insured it for $700,000, PolitiFact reported. Assuming it’s still insured for around that amount, Manchin’s got one heck of a deal: The median sales price for single-family homes in DC passed $1 million last year.
Manchin lives on a boat because he doesn’t like living here. Yawn to performative Washington-hating, but chagrin about where he’s docked seems to be part of Manchin’s shtick: “‘My worst day as governor was better than my best day as senator,’ ” he told GQ in 2018. He fantasized to reporter Jason Zengerle about the possibility of sailing home on Almost Heaven, though he conceded that would take several weeks. (It’s about a 5 1/2-hour car trip.)
Senators like to party on Almost Heaven. Pizza, beer, and merlot are often served on the boat, Time reported in 2014: “Manchin routinely invites Senators from both parties out for evening cruises. ‘Like a Tom Harkin and a Ted Cruz—when would you ever get them together in a room, O.K.?'” Better optics than Cruz’s last vacation, too. Chuck Schumer “thinks it’s his boat,” Manchin told Time.

Hmm, this report says the third barge was a Marathon Petroleum barge.

Haven't heard them say "hoax" but they've said "suspicious" and "potential explosive".

So somebody taped some road flares to an alarm clock?

Maybe they'll share what they know at 6:00.

He was making pipe bombs. He was on security video, they traced the pipe purchases and caught him in his vehicle with the pipe, along with the clothes he was wearing when he placed a bomb.

Same guy was arrested in a standoff last year.
