Thursday Dec 9th, San Diego officials burn down an Escondido, CA house rented by George Jakubec. The property contained so many homemade explosives that investigators concluded that burning the home to the ground was the safest way to dispose of the hazardous materials inside.
Jakubec is now in jail for bomb-making and bank robbery charges as neighbors try and piece together how he was able to get by for so long without being caught. George had been renting the house for the past year and filled it with chemicals and explosive materials. Bomb experts deemed it too dangerous to enter.
Local residents were evacuated and as the crew of professionals set fire to the house, paramedics and firefighters stood by just in case. Almost all of the “bomb-house” was destroyed within 30 minutes and onlookers could watch the billows of black smoke fill the air.
What kind of additional tenant screening could this unfortunate property manager have done to avoid his property being burnt to the ground? Hope they at least had a security deposit.
