Cop’s House Firebombed; Trio Held

Three people were charged Sunday with bombing a police officer’s house shortly after they had received a traffic citation from him.

They threw several Molotov cocktails at officer Joseph Burrow’s house and truck while his wife and children were home early Sunday, the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms said.

No one was injured.

William Bragg, 20; Tommy Johnson, 21; and Kelly Howe, 23, were charged with arson, illegal possession of destructive devices, conspiracy and firearms violations.

They were being held pending arraignment in federal court today. They face up to 70 years in prison if convicted.
