I pulled this off the AP wire this morning at work. I dont' have a link to send you to, but it's an interesting story.
ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - Two friends of a man charged with shooting his way through a crowded shopping mall were arrested after authorities discovered a videotape of them detonating pipe bombs.
The arrests stem from the investigation into the shootings Sunday at Hudson Valley Mall that left two people injured. But Ulster Police Chief Paul Watzka says there's no indication that shooting suspect Robert Bonelli Junior intended to use an explosive device at the mall.
Police searching Bonelli's home after the shooting found a videotape depicting the manufacture and detonation of pipe bombs. The two men arrested were in the videotape along with Bonelli.
Kenneth Stine and Liborio Valguarnera were arrested Monday for violating federal explosive laws related to the possession of a pipe bomb. At a hearing in federal court in Albany today, the judge ordered conditional release for the pair.
The next court date is March 4th.
