“Our bomb unit just disposed of a pipe bomb,” said Sgt. Katie Larsen of the King County-affiliated Shoreline Police Department. “We also found heroin, methamphetamine, a sawed-off shotgun, pistols.”

The bust came began at about 5 a.m. Thursday, and police remained on the scene Thursday afternoon. The six suspects were arrested on drug charges and were taken to the King County and Snohomish County jails. Two of them had outstanding warrants from Snohomish County, Larsen said.
