He was on home detention for making bomb threats. Then police found him with a bomb.
A Little River man, confined to his home after allegedly making bomb threats, was taken into custody on escape charges Sunday when officers found him at a different address where drugs, a sawed-off shotgun and an improvised explosive device were found.
Twenty-six-year-old Justin Matthew McCoy was placed on home detention as a condition of his bond on Nov. 16 after he was arrested for making bomb threats in North Myrtle Beach. He was placed under GPS monitoring, according to a release from the Horry County Sheriff’s Office.
HCSO’s deputies were alerted McCoy had removed the monitor he wore for home detention at 5 a.m. Sunday, according to the release.
Officers say McCoy removed the device from his leg and tossed it into the Intracoastal Waterway, according to arrest warrants.
Deputies responded and found McCoy at a different home in Little River. During a search of the location, officers said they found heroin, a sawed-off shotgun that had been reported stolen, what appeared to be some type of improvised explosive device and materials to make more bombs, according to arrest warrants.
