The courthouse in Berryville, Arkansas had to be evacuated when a bone-headed lawyer tried to admit fireworks into evidence, triggering an explosives alert.
Sheriff Chuck Medford said a member of the Springdale bomb squad happened to be in the courtroom. The officer viewed the device and ordered an evacuation. Subsequently, the entire Springdale bomb squad was called to detonate the possible explosive object.They're trying to decide whether to charge the lawyer with a crime. I guess you can't prosecute someone for being stupid.
Medford said the device did not explode, and it appeared to be what he calls a "conventional explosive device."
