Volunteer firefighter arrested in explosion
A volunteer firefighter was arrested Tuesday night after Baltimore County police said he detonated explosives behind a Dundalk elementary school. Anthony Dale Reed, 20, was arrested at his home on the 500 block of 48th St. in Dundalk, according to police. His arrest cameafter police first responded to a report of an explosion just after midnight Saturday at Berkshire Elementary School. Reed also is suspected in a Nov. 15 bomb threat, in which a caller threatened to detonate a device in the Berkshire community, police said. Police received similar reports of explosions Monday night, when investigators found a charred area and debris near a tree behind the school. Reed was charged with manufacturing/possessing/distributing a destructive device, possession of explosive/incendiary material with intent to create destructive device, second- degree malicious burning, trespassing on school grounds, and threat of arson. He is being held at the Baltimore County Detention Center without bail pending a bail review hearing. No attorney was listed for Reed in online court records.
