Bryan man accused of throwing bombs at Van Wert Co. home

Posted: Updated:

VAN WERT, Ohio (WTVG) -- He's accused of throwing four bombs onto the front lawn of a home, including one that went off. Now, a man from Bryan is under arrest.

This story comes to us from the Van Wert Independent. According to the paper, Ronald McBride, pleaded not guilty to four counts of possession of explosive devices.

Last month, deputies in Van Wert Co. accused McBride of throwing improvised explosive devices, or "I.E.D.s," into the yard of a rural residence on Zook Rd. One of the bombs went off. No one was hurt.

McBride, 42, is now under arrest in connection with the felonies. He's being held on a half-million dollar bond and is expected to be back in court next week.
