Two being held without bond for Winder explosion

By Associated Press

WINDER, Ga. (AP) — Two men have been arrested after police concluded they set off an explosion in a subdivision in Winder in early October, damaging a number of houses.

Winder police said Friday that they have arrested 31-year-old Michael Bonzo Huff of Nicholson and 38-year-old Royce Van Court of Winder.

The men are being held without bail in the Barrow County jail on charges including possessing explosives, terroristic threats and acts, reckless conduct and criminal property damage. Huff is also charged with possessing methamphetamine and possessing a weapon during a crime.

It's unclear if either man has a lawyer representing him.

Some sort of bomb went off before dawn on Oct. 2 on Holly Drive in Winder, heavily damaging a car and blowing out windows in multiple houses. No one was injured. Winder police say the blast appears to be related to a “domestic conflict.”

Van Court was arrested Oct. 4, while Huff was arrested last week.
