From Times Wire Reports
Two men with Pakistani passports were detained at the Canadian border after leaving the United States with what authorities said might be bomb-making materials. Cpl. Michele Paradis of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police said the two walked separately into Canada across the Rainbow Bridge from Niagara Falls, N.Y.
They were being questioned by a U.S.-Canadian border enforcement team.
“I know they have a detention and they’ve been doing testing of materials that may be bomb-making materials,” said U.S. customs inspector Steve Loffredo.
