Posted: 1:08 p.m. Friday, April 06, 2018
BEAVER DAM, Wis.
A Wisconsin man who accidentally blew himself up in his apartment last month -- requiring authorities to later burn down the entire building -- had a homemade bomb lab, explosive chemicals, guns and ammunition on hand, according to unsealed search warrants in the case.
Benjamin D. Morrow, 28, also had white supremacist literature in his Beaver Dam apartment, according to the Fond du Lac Reporter. Search warrants made public Thursday gave a glimpse into the life of the food company quality control technician, who had a background in chemistry.
Morrows body was found in front of his stove following the March 5 explosion at the Village Glen Apartments, the Reporter said. A burner on the stove was still on when his body was found.

Basically what they do when they find a meth lab in a unit. They decided this guy's bomb ingredients posed a danger even after he blew up his own unit, so everyone else lost their apts, cops torched it.
