Friday, June 02, 2006
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Authorities said they found pipe bombs and a jar containing the potentially deadly poison ricin while searching a home in suburban Nashville.
The ricin was found sealed in a baby food jar in a shed at the home of William Micheal Matthews, according to a joint statement Thursday from Nashville police, the FBI, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, and health officials.
Officials said the jar was sealed and they do not believe the neighborhood was threatened, although the house remained cordoned off Thursday night. An FBI hazardous material team was expected to arrive Friday morning to continue sweeping the property.
Authorities first searched the shed Wednesday after receiving a tip from Matthews' estranged wife. They also found five gun silencers, a bowl containing ricin residue and bomb-making materials........http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,197887,00.html
