ALEXANDRIA, La. (AP) -- A recreational vehicle stopped for reckless driving near a state softball tournament held six children, three adults, marijuana and a bomb, the Rapides Parish Sheriff's Office says.
A gas station and convenience store were evacuated while the sheriff's office bomb squad defused the device, and the three Dixie Softball tournament semifinals continued without interruption, sheriff's Lt. Robert Beauregard said.
He said the RV was stopped on Louisiana Highway 28 West after the sheriff's office got a reckless driving complaint. The driver agreed to a search, and marijuana and the bomb were found, Beauregard said.
He said the driver was booked with possessing marijuana, endangering the children, who were 6 to 10 years old, and making an explosive device.
One female passenger was arrested on multiple warrants.
