And the FBI is not claiming this as a foiled terrorist plot? I guess they can't, since it was apparently a local police arrest.A North Carolina-based air traffic controller has been arrested and charged with possessing a weapon of mass destruction. The suspect was working at Charlotte Douglas International Airport during the time of his arrest.
Paul George Dandan, 30, was at the airport when he was apprehended and taken to jail Friday, an unnamed source said, the Charlotte Observer reported.
Dandan's bail is set at $45,000. The man is also being charged with two other weapons offenses, according to the newspaper, citing court records.
The weapon in question has not been confirmed. It is believed to be some kind of explosive, but was not in Dandan's possession at the airport, according to WSOC.

A roommate of Dandan's was also arrested in relation to having bomb-making materials, which were also not at the airport.

Of course not. Look at him.WCNC reported that the Bureau does not expect federal charges to be filed against Dandan.
That's a big old cross around his neck.
In 2015, Dandan was arrested by Charlotte police for assaulting a female, according to WCCB reporter Jon Wilson.
Believable story? I didn't think so.Police say Dandan, an air traffic controller at Charlotte-Douglas, had a homemade pipe bomb he got from another man, Derrick Fells.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg police said Fells admitted to them that he made the bomb to "use it against a neighbor" with whom he had an ongoing dispute. Fells then changed his mind and gave the bomb Dandan, police said.

I wonder if Fells will incur a federal charge.
Fells was charged with three counts of manufacturing a weapon of mass destruction and one count of possession of a weapon of mass destruction.
How is that not a federal offense?Dandan, who is held on $45,000 bond, was charged with three counts of possessing, acquiring, and transporting a weapon of mass destruction.
