["Phil Hypes" <laradcon@HOTMAIL.COM>]

In the US, If terrorist involvement is suspected, there's good chance that a 

National Guard Weapons of Mass Destruction Civil Support Team would get 

involved, especially if radiological, biologocal, or chemical agents are 

suspected.  They have radiation detectors, and I can speak for several teams 

that are pretty well trained in radiological issues.
