LIVONIA — A police officer on patrol found what Livonia Police Chief Brad Joffrion called “a homemade explosive device” at Soprano’s Supermarket about 3 a.m. today.
A Louisiana State Police bomb squad, Livonia police and Pointe Coupee Parish sheriff’s deputies determined the device had a burned-out wick, and dismantled it, Joffrion said.
Traffic was stopped both ways on U.S. 190 for about 30 minutes while authorities worked the incident, Joffrion said.
The investigation is ongoing, he said.
