Prosecutors say large amounts of chemicals commonly used for making bombs and explosive devices have been found at the home of an unemployed northern New Jersey doctor.
Sixty-year-old Roberto Rivera, of Ridgewood, faces several charges, including possession of a destructive device
and recklessly creating a risk of widespread injury. His bail was set
at $1 million cash. It wasn't known Saturday if he had retained a
lawyer.
Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli
says investigators also found several assault rifles and other weapons
when they searched Rivera's home Friday night. Ridgewood police had
initially responded to the home after receiving a report that
potentially hazardous materials might be at the residence.
Prosecutors say Rivera is unemployed but has a license to practice medicine in New York.
