50 explosive devices removed by Police in suburban home

According to CBC, 50 homemade explosive devices have been removed by Ontario police officers from a suburban house in Barrie. Police say they have never seen so many explosives in one location.

The explosive devices were scattered through out the home. While some were hidden, others were laying out in the open. Police say it’s more explosives than they would normally find in a year.

After a call from Donald Feldhoff, 54, who turned himself in on Wednesday an arrest for Feldhoff’s father, William, 75, triggered the search of the house that the two had been living in for many years.

The home will continue to be searched for a couple of more days to make sure that no explosives remain.

Roughly 60 residents have been asked to leave their homes due to police investigation.

Police also found firearms inside in the basement of the home, however they have yet to be removed. Police claim they are more focused on ensuring that the house is safe to move around in.  

Donald has now been charged for first-degree murder of 26-year-old Michael Traynor, while William is being charged as an accessory. The homicide occurred more than 30 years ago.
