YAKIMA -- A man who said he was experimenting with a Kool-Aid-containing explosive compound for homemade fireworks when his truck blew up will remain in jail pending a federal grand jury investigation. Thomas R. Webster, 45, of Yakima, was ordered held without bail yesterday ...
Webster's 1971 yellow pickup truck exploded on June 13, destroying the vehicle, scattering debris 150 feet away and starting several small fires. Webster told ATF Special Agent Eric Floyd that he had been making an explosive called HMTD and was writing a how-to manual for making fireworks. Webster said he had been making the compound in his apartment for more than a year and was storing it in the back of his truck, Floyd testified. The truck was parked in a parking lot adjacent for the four-plex apartment house where he lived when it blew up.
