From CNN
Section of Florida's I-75 is closed and no-fly zone imposed after suspects held following terror alert. Details soon.
Am not leaving house until I know what's going on.

Yes, this is about 90 miles from us, but a bit closer to [livejournal.com profile] peacock_harpy

Fear not: we're about two and a half hours away from the area -- although my mother-in-law is driving up from Miami for a visit tomorrow. I'm glad she isn't driving today.

Hang in there; I'm glad the guys were caught. Can't believe they were dumb enough to talk about it at a Shoney's and then idiot enough to drive through a toll booth. Very stoopid behavior. These are dumb terrorists.

(And I may give you a YM buzz sometime next week -- this week has been overbooked! Ay-yi-yi!)

Um, what section of I-75 might this be? My parents' house is right off 75.

According to the news, they've closed the area between the Naples toll booth and SR 29 -- from my direction, the part heading into the Everglades on Alligator Alley.

*hugs* I'm sending you good vibes. I just turned CNN on; it seems okay. It looks like it was a bomb, and the police detonated it.
