Geocache Hunt Turns Bomb Scare

Sigh.

Lake County Sheriff's Department officers, including the bomb squad, and the Long Grove Fire Department were called to the scene, Jonites said.

The store and the parking lot were evacuated as a precaution, but no injuries were reported.

Officials determined the box contained a geotag used to help GPS systems track locations, and pieces of paper, the lieutenant said.

The geotag is part of an Internet treasure hunt called Geocaching, where players use a GPS device to track hidden geotags which issues the latitude and longitude of its location, the lieutenant said.

I sigh mostly because there's nobody to really rail against here. You can't really blame the police for investigating a mysterious package being hidden in a public place, nor can you really hate geocachers. They're just so darn adorable. But sigh, this is the world in which we live.
