A father and his teen son were arrested in Nassau County after what started as a bias incident investigation at Syosset High School led the police to discover chemicals that had been combined to create explosive materials inside the father’s and son’s home.<\/p>\n
Nassau County police said they were investigating after a 15-year-old male, who was not identified because of his age, drew a swastika in a male bathroom at the school.<\/p>\n
During the investigation, officers responded to the teen’s home on Patricia Lane in Syosset and discovered several chemicals that had been combined to create explosive materials.<\/p>\n
Nassau County police had to evacuate the home and the surrounding area.<\/p>\n
The Nassau County Fire Marshal, Arson Bomb Squad and Nassau County Police Emergency Service Unit all responded to the scene.<\/p>\n
People in the area heard a loud bang as police were investigating.<\/p>\n
A source told News 12 that police had to initiate a controlled ignition of a chemical, due to its volatility, out of an abundance of caution.<\/p>\n
The Nassau County Hazardous Material Response Team also responded and carefully removed the hazardous material from the home.<\/p>\n
Investigators said the teen’s father, Francisco Sanles, 48, bought the chemicals on multiple occasions.<\/p>\n
Nassau County police charged Sanles with two counts of 1st degree criminal possession of a weapon, two counts of 4th degree criminal facilitation, two counts of endangering the welfare of a child and reckless endangerment.<\/p>\n
He will be arraigned later today at court in Hempstead.<\/p>\n
Police also charged the teen with two counts of 1st degree criminal possession of a weapon, 4th degree criminal mischief, 1st degree aggravated harassment and making graffiti.<\/p>\n
He will be arraigned at Nassau County Family Court in Mineola. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A father and his teen son were arrested in Nassau County after what started as a bias incident…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":207220,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,9,24,63,129,131,130],"class_list":["post-207219","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-the-bronx","tag-bronx","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-the-bronx","tag-the-bronx-headlines","tag-the-bronx-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207219","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=207219"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/207219\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/207220"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=207219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=207219"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=207219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
