New Hampshire man placed 3 pipe bombs under neighbor's porch, police say

The 53-year-old suspect didn't explain why he reportedly intended to bomb the woman's house

A man has been accused of putting three gun powder-filled pipe bombs under his neighbor's porch, police in New Hampshire said.

Police in Laconia said they were called to a woman's home on Sunday. She gave an officer a package wrapped in plastic and packing tape, and showed a video of her neighbor putting something under her porch, according to a police affidavit released Monday.

The officer said he could feel three separate items. One was wrapped in a plastic shopping bag.

A police bomb squad was sent to a Laconia, New Hampshire, woman's home after her neighbor placed a package containing three pipe bombs under her porch.

"As I was unwrapping that bag, I could see a white PVC pipe with what looked like a fuse connected to it," the officer said in the affidavit. The state police bomb squad was requested to respond and "determined it to be three pipe bombs filled with gun powder."
