An Arkansas man has been arrested after being found with six homemade pipe bombs, according to court documents.
Lawrence Hickman, 52, was booked into the Benton County Jail on Thursday on six counts of criminal possession of explosive materials or a destructive device. He is being held on a $1 million bond.
According to the arrest affidavit, a woman called Bella Vista police on Dec. 9 to report that Hickman had been harassing her.
Once BVPD arrived at Hickman’s residence, the woman told police she found a bottle of chloroform in a dresser drawer.
Holy cow, it sounds like someone told him to look on kayak.com and he got confused 🤔
I feel better about my neighbors after reading that. How long do you think the neighbor was listening to this guy before realizing he was serious?
Guy’s gotta have a hobby!
BTW: he had liquor for the Russians, but what did he have for the Chinese?
BBTW: Sounds like a great funding pitch for a Nat Geo doco. If I was a multi millionaire I’d help him make it a reality. Even if he was just talking shit to avoid jail, I’d work it out with the judge and make him attempt it.
Officers spoke with a neighbor who said that Hickman wanted to kayak to the Philippines where his wife was and planned to travel to Alaska, and through the Bering Sea.
The neighbor told BVPD that the pipe bombs were for sharks and pirates and he had liquor for the Russians, according to the affidavit.
I am so ashamed of myself. As an Asian, I always assumed Arkansas to be in North America.
Dude’s a few fries short of a Happy Meal.
He wasn’t accused of being the brightest bulb.
they should have just let him go. it was going to work itself out.
Please give him his pipe bombs back and let him go those sharks and pirates are no joke
and he had liquor for the Russians, according to the affidavit
These americans dangerously underestimating us once again. We can lack many things, crucial ones, but cheep booze? Never, never!
Sounds more like a Florida Man news story.
Hickman…… that says it all.
