BOULDER — A hazardous materials team responded to the county’s Hazardous Materials Management Facility in east Boulder on Saturday afternoon to aid in the removal of what police say were containers filled with potential explosives.

At approximately 2 p.m. Saturday police were dispatched to the facility, 1901 63rd St., on reports of suspicious containers that had been dropped off there, according to Boulder police Sgt. Pat Wyton.

Upon investigation, the containers, which appear to be from some time in the 1970s, were deemed to be filled with dangerous explosive materials likely meant for use during mine blasting, Wyton said.
