'Potential security event' reported at South Carolina nuclear site
Authorities triggered an emergency response on Monday -- including barring all incoming traffic -- at a South Carolina nuclear site because of what was described as "a potential security event."
The Savannah River Site, which is affiliated with the U.S. Department of Energy and National Nuclear Security Administration, announced the precautions via Facebook around 3:42 p.m.
About one and a half hours later, the site explained why: "Electronic and canine scans of a vendor delivery truck indicated a possibility of explosive residue on the truck."
