More charges filed against bomb suspect
The Associated Press
RENO, Nev. — After a five-day spate of pipe bombings that had rural Americans nervously eyeing their mailboxes, the suspect's own father and an alert motorist led to the arrest of a 21-year-old college student who majored in art and sang in a punk band called Anpathy.
Luke J. Helder, of Pine Island, Minn., was arrested Tuesday after a high-speed
chase along a desert highway and a cell phone conversation with an FBI negotiator and his parents.
Authorities put out an alert for Helder after his father called police late Monday about a letter from his son that contained reference to the bombings, Menomonie, Wis., Police Chief Dennis Beety said yesterday.
The capture came eight hours after the FBI issued an allpoints bulletin for Helder and
said it wanted to question him about the 18 pipe bombs found since Friday.
Six people — four letter carriers and two residents — were injured by bombs left in mailboxes in Illinois and Iowa. Twelve other bombs found in Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado and Texas did not explode. Most of the bombs were accompanied by anti-government propaganda warning that more "attention getters" were on the way.
rederal prosecutors in Iowa charged Helder with using an explosive to maliciously destroy property affecting interstate commerce and with using a destructive device to commit a crime of violence. The charges carry penalties of up to life in prison and fines of $250,000. In addition, he was booked on a federal firearms charge.
Federal charges were filed yesterday in Illinois and in Nebraska.
Parking lot hours to change starting next August
The University of Kansas in August will change the restricted times in the blue portion of parking lot 41, south of Learned Hall. The lot currently is restricted from 7 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Next semester the lot will be restricted from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
"Dean Locke proposed that we open half the lot," Johnson said. "We took the proposal to the parking department and they proposed that the entire lot be open."
Kyle Johnson, Wichita sophomore, took photographs of the lot on five random nights to show Carl Locke, dean of engineering, that few spaces were being used by faculty after 5 p.m.
The proposal to open every space after 5 p.m. was vetoed by Provost David Shulenburger, Johnson said.
Then, Johnson passed a petition around to engineering faculty members that would open all but 10 blue spaces after 5 p.m. He said 40 instructors signed the petition.
Johnson said he took the petition back to Shulenburger, who approved it.
In August, Johnson plans on asking faculty to sign petitions to open lots 18,21,35 and 37 after 5 p.m.
