Makeshift bomb found on First Street

A Molotov cocktail was discovered near the Pleasanton Farmers Market on July 2, a police report said.

The makeshift bomb was found behind a vehicle at about 10:49 a.m. in the 4700 block of First Street, according to the report, which described the device as a 2-liter plastic bottle apparently filled with gasoline and with a gasoline-soaked rag partway inside. The Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department responded and the bottle is being shipped to a laboratory for fingerprinting. There are no suspects, the report said.
