DEVELOPING: Connecticut police and FBI agents are investigating what they say appear to be "improvised explosives" and bomb-making materials found late Wednesday night in a New Haven home.

Firefighters found the materials when they responded to reports of smoke at 17 Hubinger Street, New Haven Police Officer Joe Avery said .

No injuries were reported, and Avery said there is no immediate danger.

He said it's not clear how many bombs and explosive materials are in the home.

An FBI spokesman in New Haven confirmed that agents were on the scene Thursday and were assisting in the investigation, but declined to provide additional details.

Hubinger Street remained closed to traffic early Thursday.

Peter Wells, who lives not far from the home, said a "few guys" had moved into the residence on Sunday. The three white men appeared to be in their mid 20s or early 30s, Wells said.

"They looked like average guys," he said. "I didn't see anything out of line at all, that's why I'm a daze myself about what's going on."

He said he was awakened at 3:30 a.m. by the police.

"They just got the house shut down," Wells told FoxNews.com. "Whatever happened at this residence, [police officials] are stating that it's a pretty serious matter over there. But they're not releasing many details."

Wells said he saw New Haven police officers "stomping on a box" early Thursday morning, and that police dogs were on the scene.

Tell me about it....I live about 25 minutes from New Haven. In fact, planning on going to a concert at Toad's Place in New Haven tomorrow night.

Just checked local news....seems like the explosives turned out to be fireworks instead.

So there were no IED's at all? Or were they fireworks made into IED's?
