Book on explosives found in Henrico home
But inside, the house on South Mooreland Road was a warehouse of bomb parts, judging by what police seized. Leading the 10-page search-warrant list of items seized this week from the house and garage is a book: "The Original Poor Man's James Bond." An investigator said yesterday that the book is full of directions and recipes for making improvised explosive devices.
Hedgepeth, a 20-year-old part-time Pleasants Hardware employee, is being held in the Henrico County jail without bond. He is charged with possession of marijuana, a sawed-off shotgun and materials for making illegal explosives.
The items seized Tuesday included PVC pipe; hacksaws; aluminum foil; tape; electrical connectors; shell casings; pipes; drill bits; duct tape; four ammunition boxes; Pyrodex explosive powder; fuses; zip ties; alligator clips; a battery; a wire cutter; a utility knife; measuring spoons with residue; unidentified white, yellow and black powder; road flares; fireworks; smoke grenades; MRE heating packets; PVC end caps; dowel rods; party poppers; a sawed-off shotgun; a handgun and silencer; and computer parts.
