Englewood police on Monday neutralized a pipe bomb that was found at a home associated with two men who were already facing criminal charges for possessing explosives, according to a news release.
A resident of the home at 4945 block of South Delaware Street discovered the pipe bomb at about 1:40 p.m. Monday, outside the home near an air conditioning unit. That resident called police, who responded, evacuated the immediate area and then neutralized the bomb, which they said was a “viable explosive device.”
The purpose of the explosive was not clear Tuesday, but Englewood Sgt. Ed Disner said in an email that the device had not been ignited, “so we don’t believe it was intended to do any harm.” The home sits across the street from a high school.The pipe bomb was discovered days after two men admitted to making explosives at the home, according to police.
They “admitted to making explosives in the garage,” according to the news release. Both men were charged with possessing explosives, a felony. Gessing was also charged with possessing drug paraphernalia, court records show. Lubotsky was released from jail on a $5,000 bond and was free on Monday, when the pipe bomb was found, while Gessing was held in custody and was still in jail.
