Teen charged in shooting incident arrested for pipe bomb found at residence
January 29, 2010, 5:50 pm
Following the discovery of the bomb the area was evacuated and the Spokane Bomb Squad responded to the scene and neutralized the explosive.
The search was part of an ongoing investigation involving alleged shooters Austin B. Medlock and Austin J. Rickert. The two 14-year-old Deary High School freshmen each were charged with two counts of unlawful discharge of a firearm at a vehicle during a hearing at the Latah County Courthouse on Monday. The incident shut down a portion of State Highway 8 between Deary and Bovill for several hours.
Dispatcher Jenny Bryant said the department is not currently releasing the name of which of the boys was taken back into custody as of Friday evening. The teen has been charged with unlawful possession of bombs or destructive devices along with the two other felony counts.
Medlock and Rickert are scheduled to again appear in court at 11 a.m. Wednesday.
