Police seize explosives in central Portugal - CNN.com: "(CNN) -- Police in Portugal this week seized more than 3,000 pounds of explosives from a house used by the Basque separatist group ETA, the Spanish Interior Ministry said Saturday.
Additionally, other suspicious material was found in boxes inside the home in Obidos, about 60 miles north of Lisbon, said Lt. Gen. Nelson Dos Santos, commander of the Portuguese National Republican Guard on Friday.
'The items that we have found and that are now being analyzed by the national anti-terrorism unit ... lead us to believe that we are dealing with terrorists,' said Jose Almeida Rodrigues, head of Portugal's judicial police.
The discovery was made Thursday and came three days after guards attempted to stop an SUV whose occupants led them on a chase."
