A California man is facing new federal charges after being arrested in a courthouse bomb attack that injured five people last month.

A California man is facing new federal charges after being arrested in a courthouse bomb attack that injured five people last month, prosecutors said Wednesday. Nathaniel McGuire, 20, has been charged with using a weapon of mass destruction, maliciously damaging a building with an explosive, and possessing unregistered destructive devices, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Los Angeles said in a statement. McGuire was arrested Sept.

Federal authorities said he was arrested as he was trying to get into his car, which was parked nearby, and 'yelled that the government had taken his guns and that everyone needed to fight, rise up, and rebel.'Law enforcement said they found ammunition, a rifle, a shotgun, a suspected bomb, fireworks, and 10 Molotov cocktails inside the car.
