ORIGINAL STORY:

The Idaho Falls Bomb Squad is in Blackfoot tonight investigating a suspicious item in a dumpster.

The Blackfoot Police Chief Kurt Asmus tells us the dumpster is in the Opal and Camus Street neighborhood.

He also says when you call for a bomb squad you also have to call Idaho State Police so there are a lot of people there.

We have a team on the way to Blackfoot and will update this story as we learn more.
