SALEM, N.H. (AP) - Several businesses were evacuated and a highway ramp was shut down as police investigated the discovery of three pipe bombs in Salem.

The devices were found in a vehicle that police pulled over Friday evening because its registration was expired. Part of Pelham Road and the Exit 2 ramp from Interstate 93 were closed, and nearby businesses were evacuated while the State Police bomb squad was called in.

No one was injured. Two individuals were taken into custody.
