'Suspicious' documents found in U-Haul truck 
Rental manager: 'It didn't take me long to call people, let's put it that way'

There were some tense moments at a U-Haul facility in Tempe on Friday.

A 14-foot truck was returned to the company's Priest Drive location around 3 p.m.

When a manager opened it up, he spotted some items he thought looked suspicious.

According to Vice President of Product and Safety, "It didn’t take me long to call people let’s put it that way."

Doug Matteson from the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office explains what happened next.

"We opened it up, we saw some items that kinda looked linked to suspicious activity…we are not saying this is involved with terrorism…we saw some items that kinda bring some attention to our Deputies that work anti-terrorism. We called them out to make sure, have them go through everything."

The Sheriff Office confirms there were no guns, explosives, or hazardous materials found in the truck.

They do say there was a messy pile of suspicious documents and files.

There were also some other items that the Sheriff’s Office said it was not prepared to comment on.

The FBI says it was aware of the discovery but according to agent Deb McCarley "there is nothing to suggest it is terrorist related."

Investigators will continue combing through the documents and are trying to dig up more information about the person who last rented the truck.

That comment reminds me of the cair boys incident in Va.
