Bomb squad investigating devices found in Rio Linda home

The sheriff’s bomb squad is responding to Rio Linda after a fire led to the discovery of two potentially explosive devices in a residential garage, according to authorities.

Firefighters responded to the home on the 1000 block of Fallon Woods Way in Rio Linda and found a man who was on fire. After the fire was extinguished, the man was uncooperative and refusing treatment for his injuries, which were not serious, said Sacramento County Sheriff’s Deputy Jason Ramos.

Because of his resistance, firefighters called deputies, who, upon arriving, found two potentially explosive devices in the man’s garage, Ramos said. It’s not clear whether those devices played a role in the fire, he said.

The Explosive Ordnance Detail is investigating the devices.
