A call for a suspicious vehicle outside south of the Toledo Express Airport near Swanton led to the Toledo Bomb Squad being called in Monday night.

The Lucas County Sheriff's Office says someone called about two individuals removing the license plate on their Chevy truck next door to their home on Monclova Road.

A deputy tracked the truck down and the driver appeared to evade the squad vehicle as he pulled into Big Sandy Campground on South Berkey Road.

The truck stopped, and the driver, Joshua J Orner, allegedly was trying to screw the license plate back on when the deputy first made contact.

The passenger, Andrew Joseph Leininger, said they were going to confront someone he believed was having an affair with his wife. He said he had placed a GPS device on her vehicle, and it was parked for several hours at the Monclova Road address on Saturday.

The deputy searched the vehicle, finding a pistol in its case with one round in the chamber, two loaded magazines, and an explosive device about eight inches long with a fuse attached, as well as two baseball bats.

Orner said the explosive was made with black powder and he was taking it to his cousin's house to set it off.

The Toledo Bomb Squad was called in to remove what they called a quarter stick of dynamite.

Orner and Leininger were taken to Lucas County Jail. They are both charged with possession of unlawful ordnance and inducing panic with reckless regard.

Orner also faces an additional firearms violation as well.

Both were arraigned Tuesday morning in Maumee Municipal Court and have a preliminary hearing scheduled for Thursday.
