West Chester Bomber Named By West Chester Blog

There's been breaking news concerning the bombs planted in West Chester's Mosteller garage. The photos above show what authorities are calling a "person of interest." This person has been named as a bomb suspect. As one of the largest and definitely most loved news outlets in Chester County, That Blue Yak will now reveal the name of the suspect. Not that we know the identity, we just want to name him as in - a nickname..you know.

Based on his orange outfit and portly appearance, we give you: "Oran-JO" (copyright That Blue Yak) . We ask that all residents start referring to him as "Oran-Jo" and the incident as "The West Chester Garage Bomb Incident of 2008 - the Showdown."

And of course if anyone has information leading to his identity, please contact the ATF Hotline at 1-888-ATF-BOMB.

West Chester Bomb Scare - Blogger Safe

When I pulled into West Chester at noon to meet a client today I was a bit surprised to see five helicopters above as well as streets closed off. Being a celebrity myself, it's not unusual to see some paparazzi fanfare but puh-leeaaaase. As it turns out, there was a bomb scare. They found some "bomb stuff" in Mostellers Garage*.

While waiting for my client to arrive I stood on the corner of Gay and High Street kind of hoping someone would ask, "Is there a hero in the crowd?" It never happened.

The hero of the day was the hot roast beef sandwich I enjoyed at Kildare's (except, unfortunately it was on a poppy seed encrusted potato roll).
