Penn State Student Arrested Over WMD
Newser ^ | 1/26/14 | Rob Quinn

A Penn State freshman from Moscow was arrested on charges including possessing weapons of mass destruction and risking a catastrophe after cops found a bomb and explosives-related materials in his apartment. Police say they found the bomb-making materials while investigating a suspected marijuana grow-op at the home of 18-year-old Vladislav Miftakhov, who allegedly told them he planned to "blow things up," CNN reports.

Police say the teen, who is being held on $500,000 bail, later explained that he had bought the bomb-making materials on Amazon.com and planned to set off explosives in a field. His roommate says Miftakhov was a "dumb" and "crazy" kid who had recently set off three "mini-bombs" outside their apartment. "He was off the wall" but not a danger to the public, the roommate tells the Altoona Mirror.

Sounds like Miftakhov is nothing more than a "wild and crazy guy", like these two characters:

Just what Penn State needs. First the child sex abuse scandal, now they're harboring a nutcase Russian bombmaker.

Non Story.

No WMD Mentioned. No Nuclear, Biological or Chemical ones.

Just a kid making stupid bombs.

I just saw an episode where the guys in Duck Dynasty get some dynamite to blow stuff up. Isn’t that what this guy wanted to do?
