Marine arrested after 42 bombs with "enhanced lethality" found in his home because he was afraid of government collapsing
At least 42 pipe bombs were found inside a former Marine's home in Arizona, which he reportedly made over the course of four years because his wife was afraid that the government would collapse, according to reports. The 51-year-old former Marine, identified as Jeffrey Metcalf, was arrested earlier this week after the discovery and was charged with 40 weapon charges. The officials searched Metcalf's house after the state police had initially pulled him over at a traffic stop on Wednesday. Reports state that the authorities found some bomb-making components inside his vehicle, which led them to the explosives in his house.
The former Marine, after interrogation, admitted that he had multiple pipe bombs at his home and added that he had planned to throw all of them in a body of water, according to the Daily Mail.
