He declined to describe the bulk of the material, but said there was not a “singular piece of evidence” that jumped out to him. The search turned up at least 279 weapons kept inside a thick basement vault large enough for a person to walk into, Tierney said. During the search, police used a scanning technology to identify “disturbances” in the ground outside Heuermann’s property, Tierney said. An excavator dug up the yard, and investigators with shovels could be seen scraping through freshly upturned earth. Tierney said it would be “quite some time” before all of the evidence could be tested for forensics.
