DETROIT (AP) -- Police in Michigan say a California man accused of planning to attack the Islamic Center of America was driving near the mosque wearing a ski mask when police stopped and arrested him.
Dearborn Police said in a statement Monday that 63-year-old Roger Stockham had open intoxicants, spray paint and fireworks in his car. Police did not specify which intoxicants.
Police Chief Ronald Haddad (huh-DAD') told The Associated Press that Stockham had more than two dozen class-C fireworks, including M-80s, which are illegal in Michigan.
Police say a local business owner tipped them off about Stockham. They say the suspect was heard making comments about an explosion at a mosque and seen taking pictures of the building.
Stockham was arrested a week ago in the mosque's parking lot.
