Briefly

Investigators are examining a boat in Marina del Rey as part of their inquiry into the deaths of three bomb technicians who died in an explosion. The incident involved military-grade hand grenades found in a Santa Monica apartment. The explosives were moved to a training center, where one detonated unexpectedly. The investigation, led by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, is supported by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and is expected to take weeks or months.
"The explosives, described by law enforcement sources as military-grade hand grenades and fuses, were taken from the complex in the 800 block of Bay Street on Thursday night and moved to the Biscailuz Center Training Academy, photographed and stored."
