Police detonate cache of explosives in San Jose's Japantown

I feel that this story is very relevant to the San Jose area. One of the biggest reasons is the proximity. This incident happened right at the heart of the city, close to downtown. The immediacy of the story is recent, happening just hour before this post. One of the big elements of the story is conflict. The article was about the police bomb squad trying to keep the san jose residents safe while disarming a criminal's room full of bombs and weapons. Since it affected the safety of some the citizens, it has impact. People will know that they have a police force that can handle these situations.
