Vero Beach man accused of having a bomb, planning to take it to an airport

Lina Ruiz, Treasure Coast Newspapers 16 hrs ago

 

VERO BEACH — A Vero Beach man was arrested early Sunday morning after a relative told police the man had a bomb he was planning to bring to an airport, officials said.

 

Michael Ferris, 39, was taken into custody after police received a call at about 7:40 p.m. Saturday reporting a suspected bomb threat on a boat anchored north of Vero Beach Municipal Marina in the Indian River Lagoon, said Officer Darrell Rivers of the Vero Beach Police.

 

City police contacted the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office bomb squad after finding what appeared to be an explosive device on Ferris' backpack while escorting him off his boat, Rivers said.

 

The device, Ferris told officials, was a “dummy type of bomb” with two butane canisters, one gallon of water and wires wrapped in duct tape. He also said he suffered from mental illness, and that there was a person inside his head named “Rudy” who was “brainwashing him through LSD and psychotherapy.”

 

The relative who reported Ferris said he sent her a video saying he had made a bomb and was going to take it to an airport, Rivers said. Officials did not know what airport he planned to take it to.

 

Ferris was booked into the Indian River County Jail early Sunday without bail on a charge of making, possessing, throwing, projecting, placing or discharging any destructive device.

 

 

He also said he suffered from mental illness, and that there was a person inside his head named “Rudy” who was “brainwashing him through LSD and psychotherapy.”

The families of Michael Brown and Breonna Taylor — two of the iconic victims in the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement — are questioning the funding of the movement, with Taylor’s family calling the Louisville, Kentucky BLM branch a “fraud.”

 

Earlier this month, when the New York Post reported Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Khan-Cullors had bought four homes since 2016, New York City area Black Lives Matter leader Hawk Newsome called for “an independent investigation.”

 

Those concerns are now being amplified by other figures within the movement, after Khan-Cullors defended her real estate purchases last week as part of her effort to support her family, and claimed her wealth was not due to the organization itself.

 

The Washington Examiner‘s Joseph Simonson reported Monday:

 

[O]n Thursday, the mother of Breonna Taylor, a black woman killed by police during a raid in March 2020, charged that the movement in her city of Louisville, Kentucky, is nothing more than a scam.

 

“I have never personally dealt with BLM Louisville, and personally have found them to be fraud,” Tamika Palmer wrote on Facebook.

 

Last month, the father of Michael Brown, an 18-year-old shot and killed by police officers in Ferguson, Missouri, asked Black Lives Matter a simple question: “Where is all that money going?”

 

A review of Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation’s financial documents found the group raised nearly $100 million in 2020, of which less than $40 million was spent in the last year.

 

Khan-Cullors said last week that the organization is not a “charity,” and that people in the community with financial needs should pressure the government for reparations for slavery.

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti is set to propose a “universal basic income” pilot program for some residents of his city when he unveils his new budget on Tuesday, according to the Los Angeles Times. A year ago, the cash-strapped city was sending workers on furloughs due to anticipated budget shortfalls.

 

But thanks to an unexpected economic recovery under President Donald Trump, and federal cash from President Joe Biden’s COVID-19 relief bill, L.A. is ready to spend money.

 

Garcetti is set to propose nearly $1 billion in spending to address homelessness in the city — several times more than the $138 billion he spent five years ago — and will allocate $24 million to the “universal basic income” grants, “building on an initiative already envisioned for parts of South Los Angeles,” the Times reports.

 

Other cities have begun to experiment with similar grants. The Central Valley city of Stockton, California, was the first, and early results have been promising. Oakland, California, recently announced a similar program — though ran into immediate criticism when Mayor Libby Schaaf announced that Oakland’s $500-per-month pilot grant would target “BIPOC” (black, indigenous, and people of color) residents, to the apparent exclusion of some 10,000 poor white residents of the city.

 

Republicans declined to vote for Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus package precisely because much of it was aimed at social welfare spending not related to the ongoing pandemic.

Spain uncovers workshop making 3D-printed weapons

Spanish police say they have raided and dismantled an illegal workshop that was producing 3D-printed weapons.

 

Two 3D printers along with gun parts, a replica assault rifle, two tasers and a machete were among items found in the search in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, in the Canary Islands.

 

Police say they also found manuals on terrorism and urban guerrilla warfare, as well as white supremacist material.

 

It is the first such workshop to be discovered in Spain, officials say.

 

The alleged owner of the workshop has been charged with illegal possession of weapons and explosives. According to the Spanish newspaper El País, the owner is a Spaniard and worked as the administrator of a nursing home on the island.

 

In a statement (in Spanish), police said the operation began when investigators learned of a person who was trying to sell firearms and explosives over the internet.

 

The investigation led them to Tenerife and when agents raided the workshop they found a fully operational 3D printer "printing a short rifle frame which was virtually complete".

 

Other material recovered included more than 30 manuals on subjects such as how to make homemade explosives and how to manufacture firearms through 3D printing, the statement said.

 

The raid took place last September but an investigating judge ordered details to be kept secret and the operation was only revealed on Sunday.

Vanuatu: Body of Filipino fisherman with Covid washed ashore and the Pacific island nation isn't taking any chances

A Pacific island country has banned outward travel from its main island for three days after a body washed ashore that later tested positive for Covid-19, Radio New Zealand has reported.

 

The body of a Filipino fisherman was discovered April 11 on a Vanuatu beach a short drive from the main wharf of the capital, Port Vila, on Efate island, according to the report.

 

That day, a United Kingdom-flagged tanker found one crew member was not aboard as it sailed out of Port Vila, New Zealand public broadcaster RNZ reported last week. Vanuatu port authorities told the tanker to return to port and a search and rescue operation got underway.

 

After the body of the crew member was found on the beach, authorities detained the tanker. The body was taken to a mortuary and later tested positive for Covid-19, according to RNZ.

 

It's not clear from the RNZ report whether the man died from Covid-19 or how he came to wash ashore on the island. CNN has reached out to Ministry of Infrastructure and Public Utilities which overseas the Department of Ports and Marine for more information.

 

Most of the remote island nations of the South Pacific have reported very few coronavirus cases, and Vanuatu home to around 300,000 people is no exception. The country has reported just three Covid-19 cases, according to Johns Hopkins University. It reported its first case in November last year, and two more infections in March.

 

According to Prime Minister Bob Loughman, the travel ban is in place while authorities conduct contact tracing, RNZ reported.

 

As part of those efforts, 16 people have been put in quarantine – most of them police officers who went to the scene when the body was found, according to the report. The director-general of health, Russell Tamata, is urging the public to get tested, although he said the risk of community transmission was low, according to RNZ.

 

The leader of the opposition, Ralph Regenvanu, said on Twitter that although Vanuatu had imposed "admirably strict quarantine protocols on all ports of entry into the country," they didn't foresee that a dead body with Covid-19 could wash ashore and be put in "the only mortuary in the country where people gather to mourn every day."
