Feedback: Teen Charged With Making Bomb In MassenaA Massena teenager is in the St. Lawrence County Jail after being charged with making a homemade bomb he said he was going to detonate in an ice arena.
Police Chief Timmy Currier tells 7 News that officers seized "a crudely made homemade explosive device" from Page's home at 7 Winters Street Tuesday. Police described the device as a 2-liter plastic soda bottle containing a mixture of gasoline, lighter fluid, antifreeze, staples, screws and nails. "Fortunately, the device to light it hadn't yet been put in it so it was still relatively safe and we were able to take it," said Currier. Currier says Page said he planned to detonate the bomb at the Massena Arena in an attempt to injure people. Page's house where the device was believed to be assembled and discovered by a family member is adjacent to the Junior-Senior High School and near Trinity Catholic School. Page was arraigned and committed to St. Lawrence County jail on $20,000 cash bail.
Page was also one of three charged in breaking into the Paddock Arcade the same day. See our story about Page's earlier arrest. Share Your Thoughts for Your Turn or leave a comment on our |
