An explosives investigation has shut down a busy freeway off-ramp at Lincoln Avenue in Corona this morning until further notice, according to city police and California Highway Patrol officers.
“They found some suspicious items, and it’s being checked by a bomb squad from Riverside Sheriff’s office,” Corona police Sgt. Alex Marmolejo said of the closure that has been affecting the off-ramp from the freeway’s westbound lanes since at least 3 a.m.
Who left the items there remains a mystery.
Earlier in the night, Corona police officers spotted several persons pushing a car in the same general area and discovered that one of the men had been shot, Marmolejo said.
“We’re not sure if the two (incidents) are connected,” he said.
