Roadways closed as authorities investigate 'possible explosive device' in Chatsworth

Law enforcement are on the scene where a possible homemade bomb was found in Chatsworth Thursday morning.

The California Highway Patrol and the Los Angeles Police Department responded to the De Soto Avenue on-ramp of the 118 Freeway around 11 a.m. after receiving reports of a suspicious device.

Both on- and off-ramps were closed by law enforcement and Sky5 captured video of the device, which appeared to be a possible pipe bomb on the side of the roadway.
