Woodridge, NY - Liquid Explosives Found House

Woodridge, NY - Workers found liquid explosives inside a house they were renovating at 136 Silver Lake Road in Woodridge.

The workers found a cigar box hidden inside a wall, behind the sheet rock, in a cubbyhole built into a chimney.
Inside the box were bottles, along with two peeled off labels for nitroglycerin and sulfuric acid. One bottle was still labeled, but the label was illegible.
Sullivan County sheriff's Detective Jason Gorr said there were also papers detailing how to build a box bomb and recipes for making liquid bombs.

The property has been owned since 2005 by New York City designers Christian Couture and Hayden Goltz.
But it appears that the box and its contents have been in the house for a long time - possibly for decades, Gorr said.

A state police bomb technician removed the bottles in a bomb box, and will destroy the chemicals.
The sheriff's department will notify the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to see if any further action is required.
