Three Arrested For Posession Of Explosives
KENTUCKY...
Federal officials say three men are in custody on federal explosives charges. But officials say although the men were found with enough military C4 explosives to blow up a small house, they do not appear to have ties to a militia or terrorist organization. In a news release, the Federal Bureau of Investigation identified the three as: 41-year-old Robert Bancroft, of Williamstown, Ky.; 43-year-old Daniel J. Bancroft, of Sidney, Ohio, who is Robert Bancroft's brother; and 44-year-old Paul Zahn, of Bainbridge, Ohio. The three appeared in U.S. District Court in Covington, where they were ordered held until a detention hearing Friday. A federal complaint says the Bancrofts sold a total of 12 bricks of military C4 explosives at a location in Walton.
