BEAVERCREEK, Ohio (WDTN) - Beavercreek Police are investigating their 7th pop bottle bomb incident and now they're asking for your help.

Police warn that these devices are extremely dangerous.  So far,  no one has been hurt but they say it's only a matter of time.

The incidents have taken place in the Hunter's Ridge, Christalee Acres and Oakbrook Chase Estates neighborhoods.

The most recent incident happened early Saturday morning at the intersection of Oakbrook Boulevard and Adams Way.  Police found two pop bottle bombs and disposed of them safely.  They say there are no witnesses.

This investigation began on December 13th of last year.  Since then, police have found several of these devices and the Dayton Bomb Squad has been called to detonate some of them.

If you find a similar device, you're asked to call 9-1-1 immediately, and do not try to pick it up or move it.

Police are looking for two teenagers in connection with the investigation.  If you have any information, you're asked to call Beavercreek Police at 320-7393.
