The explosive was the charge from an automotive airbag. No injuries were reported, but Stout was charged with unlawfully manufacturing a destructive device, a felony. He was also charged with drug possession, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and possession of a sawed-off shotgun. Stout allegedly admitted to placing the bomb because he was mad at the man — a former friend — for failing to return something of his.
