Probable cause statements from Brookfield Police Officer Jon Bagley accuse Creed Jones of stealing a Volkswagen Beetle convertible from Dollar General in Brookfield.
During a search of his residence, Bagley says officers with the Brookfield Police and Linn County Sheriff’s Office found two homemade explosive devices. The Highway Patrol’s Bomb Squad responded. It was determined the larger device contained shrapnel of what appeared to be bbs, and the smaller device was a type of flash bomb.
An officer was called back to a subject identified as Terry Jones loading items from the house. Terry Jones reportedly ran from the officer, returned to the vehicle, and drove the vehicle away from the scene. The vehicle was reported as stolen.
