FBI busts bomb seller in Houston sting

Yikes:
A 68-year-old Pennsylvania man was arrested on charges he tried to build a bomb and sell it to an agent he thought was a member of Al-Qaeda, officials said Monday. Ronald Allen Grecula of Bangor, Pa., was arrested Friday in Houston during a meeting with undercover FBI agents, U.S. Attorney Michael Shelby said. During that meeting, Grecula indicated willingness to build and sell an explosive device that was to be used against Americans, officials alleged in court documents.
By the way, a quick Google search reveals that a Ronald Allen Grecula is suspected of kidnapping his children and fleeing the country. If this is the same 68-year-old Ronald Allen Grecula from Pennsylvania, it will be interesting to learn how he got back into the country.
