A Florida man was arrested on multiple charges after sheriff’s deputies said they found bombs and Nazi materials in his home. Neighbors reported hearing explosions coming from Marcus Fricke’s property since he purchased his home three years ago, and a woman who was staying there called the Lake County Sheriff’s Office Tuesday and told deputies he had a number of explosive materials and devices, reported Spectrum News 13. “He had built these in the home,” said Lt. John Herrell, of the sheriff’s office. “She said he was paranoid and making suicidal comments, and was going to blow up the house.” Deputies executed a search warrant and said they found functional destructive devices triggered by a trip wire, a fuel bomb, ammonium nitrate and other bomb-making materials, in addition to large amounts of ammunitions and firearms.

Lake County deputies said they found live bombs and 50 pounds of ammonium nitrate in a home after the suspect’s roommate tipped deputies off because she was scared for her own life. The suspect, 55-year-old Markus Fricke, remains locked up on no bond after investigators determined he had several explosive devices, some of which could be set off with a tripwire. (…) Investigators said Fricke is from Germany and had Nazi memorabilia and anti-Semitic literature. But at this point it’s unknown why he was doing what he was doing or if he had any intended targets. The sheriff’s office said Fricke had a history of mental health evaluations. A few years ago, he called them to report he’d been shooting into his attic because he thought people were living up there.
