According to court documents released Tuesday, a criminal complaint written by an FBI agent said investigators found the improvised explosive devices on Oct. 6 at the Asheville Regional Airport in western North Carolina near a terminal entrance. Thankfully, Asheville police found the homemade bomb before it could be detonated. The complaint accuses Michael Christopher Estes of attempted malicious use of explo - S sive materials and unlawful possession of explosives at an airport. According to the complaint, Estes was arrested on Oct. 7 and admitted that he left the explosive device at the airport. It also said that Estes “claimed he was getting N ready to fight a war on U.S. soil” but didn’t provide authorities with any additional details about what that war would entail. The Augusta Chronicle reported that Estes was being held at the Buncombe County jail O without bond after a brief court hearing on Oct. 10. Although the suspect appears to be I white, he is listed as a 46-year-old Native American. According to court documents, the homemade explosive device contained ammonium A son of Birmingham becomes its mayor nitrate, Sterno fuel, nails and a .410 gauge Winchester shotgun cartridge.
