Authorities arrested an Idaho man Thursday who they said was in possession of a Molotov cocktail fire bomb -- the same type of explosive that was thrown at the Bannock County Courthouse the day before.
The Idaho State Journal reports Pocatello police believe 29-year-old Christopher Griffin threw the first explosive on Wednesday, and was believed to be en route to throw another when he was arrested.
Courthouse camera footage shows a person who police believe was Griffin throwing the fire bomb that landed on a sidewalk. No one was injured.
Investigators found Griffin filled a glass bottle with gasoline early Wednesday morning at a gas station. When he returned to the same gas station early Thursday morning to fill up another bottle, someone tipped off Pocatello police, who caught up with him.
