Finnish 18-year-old arrested on bomb suspicion

(Reuters) - Finnish police have arrested an 18-year-old man after searching his home and finding items that can be used to make explosive devices.

Police said in a statement Thursday they were tipped off after finding 10 kg of ammonium nitrate fertilizer from Poland addressed to the suspect.

According to Finnish news agency STT, citing The National Bureau of Investigation, the suspect said he only wanted to make small explosives, like fireworks, for his own entertainment, with no intention of hurting others.

The police also said they have not found any connection to the Norway bomb and gun attack in which an anti-Islam extremist killed 76 people on July 22.
