for making homemade bombs ... of course, they claim it to be a prank! From the Associated Press... EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Two Michigan State football players were arrested and charged with possessing a dangerous chemical compound after they allegedly planted homemade bombs that blew up outside campus apartments. Terry Love and Irving Campbell, both 19-year-old redshirt freshmen receivers, were arrested Tuesday morning as they left the scene of the first explosion, campus police said. A second bomb exploded shortly afterward, and a third was detonated by the campus police bomb squad. The men said they planted the bombs in Spartan Village as a prank, campus police Sgt. Florene McGlothian-Taylor said. No one was hurt and there was no property damage, McGlothian-Taylor said. The players released on $500 bond after being arraigned Tuesday. If convicted of the misdemeanor, both could face up to 90 days in jail and a $100 fine, McGlothian-Taylor said. Coach John L. Smith will let the legal process play out and then decide if any disciplinary action is needed, assistant athletic director John Lewandowski said. Love has 19 catches for 208 yards and a touchdown this season. Campbell has not caught a pass.
Both suspects are/were wide receivers. Maybe it was just some innocent miscommunication, i.e., "Heads up fellows, we're gonna practice throwing the bomb now..." :wink:
Since when is draino and aluminum foil in a 2 liter pop bottle a dangerous compound? I thought everyone knew how to make those MacGyver bombs?
