Early the morning of July 29, 2008, the fellow who delivers bags of mail to small rural post offices in southeastern Ohio discovered an odd device next to the door of one of the post offices. He found a similar device at the second post office on his rounds, then a third. They were wired to look like bombs. He called the authorities, and soon federal and local agents of all sorts descended on the scenes. Here, a bomb-disposal technician and his robot tend to the one in Stewart, Ohio.
