It just says they are investigating, not that they have found a bomb. Don't be so sensationalist.

So basically a bomb has not been found at Gatwick airport.

Top marks, OP.

Edit: Lol, 'act of aggression'.

dave_beast · 1 May 2013 at 19:03

I have inside information that a bomb was found

Wait and see

Firestar_3x · 1 May 2013 at 19:03

Indeed, op should apply to the DM pronto.

Police!....

What info I have is that some people were acting strange around a vehicle and a bomb was found in the nth terminal car park, bomb squad with eod's on site and it's officially the first time an "act of aggression" has been initiated at Gatwick in it's history.

I got quite angry at Gatwick once.

DiCe! · 1 May 2013 at 19:17

Think you will find one was found a few years back and it was covered up....

Get ready to edit it back then because the title wasn't based on the link, it was based on information, but whatever.

So why not put that 'inside information' in the opening post then rather than the link, which made no mention of any bomb at all...

When you've got a credible source for that, I'm sure the mods will happily oblige.

Sure that's not someone farting?

That doesn't mean it's definitely a bomb, I've seen a car blown up because it couldn't be accounted for inside a military installation. It turned out to be some high up CO's new motor.

His own fault.
