Multiple people have been reported injured after an explosion occurred during a bomb squad training exercise in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, on Thursday.
The explosion occurred during training exercises with ATF and FBI agents, according to local media. Members of the bomb squad were installing an explosive device into a vehicle for training purposes when it reportedly exploded prematurely.
Three law enforcement officers were injured in the incident, and they were transported to a nearby hospital. The injured include a member of the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office, a Pennsylvania State Trooper, and an FBI agent, according to Fox 29.
Images from the scene show a burned-out car surrounded by blackened grass. The vehicle did not appear to be bent or mangled by an explosive blast, however.
