ARVADA, Colo. (CBS4) – A man has been charged in connection with a Postal Service mailbox that was destroyed by a pipe bomb in Arvada last week.
According to the arrest affidavit, John Henry Bowman, 45, admitted to blowing up a mailbox located in a parking lot on the 9500 block of Ralston Road with a pipe bomb.
Arvada police said just before 2:30 a.m. on April 21 several people called about a suspicious noise. Police responded but were unable to determine what the calls were about because they came from several different areas.
At 7 a.m. another person called police and alerted them to the exploded mailbox, which was in front of a building that formerly housed a Safeway grocery store.
Inspectors with the U.S. Postal Service and the ATF joined Arvada police in the investigation and were able to track down Bowman after reviewing police records of suspicious vehicles from the night of the explosion. They found an officer ran the plate on Bowman’s car, which was in the area around the time of the explosion.

Well let's put it this way... Liberals think conservative uproar over gay marriage is hysterical.
So who gets to determine what's funny in government?
That’s illegal? ;^)
That's what I was thinking. A stupid kid threw some lady-finger firecrackers in a rural delivery mailbox.
From the look of remnants of that US Postbox, that was a very large pipe bomb. Those postboxes are heavy gauge steel.
Hmmm.in Colorado- the result of too much pot consumption.
I bet a few of those rivets took off nicely.
I live in a remote rural area-no one out here gets money in their mail box on the road...
That’s a little more than a couple of M80s on country road
John Henry Bowman, 45...

45!? Not 15! Good grief! How does a man live to be 45 and remain so useless. If the GF was indeed impressed she useless, as well.
Guy must be from the low end of the gene pool.
