EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WISH) — A 19-year-old woman has been arrested in Evansville after police say they found destructive devices in her backpack that she wanted to use at her old high school.
On Thursday, an Evansville Police Department officer took Ahnna Tipton to a hospital for an evaluation.
During the intake process, a hospital police officer found a suspicious item in Tipton’s backpack, EPD said in a release. The officer said it looked like a “pill bottle wrapped in duct tape with a matchstick sticking out of the lid” and a piece of cloth attached.
The officer then found a second suspicious item: An aluminum pipe sealed at both ends with duct tape, EPD said Friday. The officer identified what he thought were incendiary materials with a strong chemical odor.
EPD bomb technicians came to the hospital and interviewed Tipton. The technicians say she admitted to constructing the devices, and that she had two more at home.
The EPD Hazardous Devices Unit got a search warrant and found the two devices hidden in modified Monster Energy drink bottles.
EPD officers say in a later interview that Tipton revealed to them that she planned to deploy the devices at the high school she attended — with the intent to hurt others.
As of Friday, Tipton is being held at the Vanderburgh County Jail without bond. She is due in court Friday afternoon.
Yep, crazy eyes....
Missing info: What led the police to approaching this young woman in the first place? Did they receive an anonymous tip on Tipton? Was she “under their radar” already?

Looks like a dude, so I’d expect that ‘they’ were being watched by the police.
Are we sure that’s not a Tranny?
She’s nuts, Jim.
that’s a man, baby ...
Didn’t you date her?
Not possible. That would mean that he, a trans, is violent. That would be a first /s
They received suicide threats and took her to the hospital.
Looks just right for the Bronco.
Could set a record for guilty.
Look at them crazy eyes!

It was the look in her eyes, normally that would never hold up in court, but looking at the mugshot, I think a judge may allow it this time.
She looked like a Zombie. Most likely, her pupils were dilated, and as big as marshmallows. The way eyes can look if you dropped acid, or so I have heard.
Now that you mention it, she does have a good lantern jaw going on.
1000 mile stare. I bet there’s a meth-mouth behind that scowl.
The police may have noticed a suspicious bulge in her yoga pants.
We gotta start getting tough on crime because the communists are running wild in this country.... more crimes need to be brought into the purview of the death penalty
There may be some sarcasm involved in this post🤔
