Note to future visitors of the Kansas State Capitol: Next time, you might want to leave your improvised explosive devices at home.

Even if they’re, um, fireworks.

Police are still mum about the particulars of a Wednesday bomb scare in which they reenacted “Hurt Locker” on an illegally parked truck outside the statehouse.

It turns out they were homemade fireworks, police said in a Friday afternoon news release.

They wouldn't give out any more details — such as the size or strength of the fireworks, or who the driver was — but the new detail probably explains why police didn't arrest the suspect shortly after they found him in a tunnel between the Capitol and some legislative offices.

Oh my God is no city safe?

    They haven't released the name yet because it was probably one of the legislators or someone of great influence on them...
