Search warrant uncovers explosives

Explosives, a detonator and a military projectile round were among the items police allegedly seized during a search warrant on a West Perth home yesterday.

Police have charged a 40-year-old man after officers allegedly found two containers of ammonium nitrate and a detonator, with a fuse, nearby during the search of his home.

Officers also seized sticks of power gel, a military projectile round, drug paraphernalia and several cannabis plants.

The man has been charged with three counts of making or possessing explosives in suspicious circumstances, permitting use of premises for use of prohibited drug or plant and possession of drug paraphernalia.

He is due to appear before Perth Magistrate’s Court today.
