A Florida man has been charged after he allegedly left two improvised explosive devices in bathrooms at the Hard Rock Casino in Tampa. Bryan Robert Eckley, 46, of Tampa, was arrested Wednesday and charged with two counts of making, possessing, throwing, projecting, placing, or discharging any destructive device, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement announced Thursday.
That man had been driving a white Ford Explorer with unique characteristics, Glass said. Investigators determined that Eckley had purchased that vehicle under an alias, used a burner cellphone and paid cash for it. Authorities also learned that Eckley had been arrested by the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office two days prior to the discovery of the devices on Sept. 27 for aggravated assault with a firearm, Glass said.
