A 31-year-old Florida man built multiple explosive devices and came close to creating a bomb of significant explosive power with an intent to use it, police said.

Christopher Langer, a heroin addict with a rap sheet of petty crime, collected a cornucopia of bomb-making materials and used them to make at least three explosive devices in his parents’ home in DeBary, Florida.
