Man issues bizarre bomb threat at Owensboro business

Owensboro police were called to an auto repair shop Wednesday evening, after a man told employees there was going to be a bomb.

According to police reports, the man – described as a white male with dark curly hair and wearing a “Jack Daniels” t-shirt, approached workers at Strehl’s Chevron Auto Repair on Carter road about 5:40 p.m. Wednesday. The report says the man told employees “there was going to be a bomb that goes off, killing the terrorist.”

The report says the employees described the man “appeared to be mentally unstable and also smelled like marijuana.” The employees also told police the man did not seem to have anything resembling a bomb, and they did not see him place anything in the area.

Officers conducted a search, but could not find anyone matching the man’s description.
