Officers responded quickly and made contact with the woman who was identified as Jamie Howell. Once detained by police, they searched her backpack and found several Molotov cocktails. There were other items found that could be used to make explosive devices, and law enforcement also found a lighter.
Once questioned by police, Howell admitted to making and testing the bombs at areas around Commerce. At that point, there was enough evidence to charge her with two counts of arson and possession of a prohibited weapon. Police say more charges may be possible.
