STEVENS, Pa. -- Federal authorities say Blake R.
Steidler wasn't happy with the results of his
penile-enlargement surgery.
A grand jury indictment is charging the Pennsylvania
man with mailing a bomb to the Chicago plastic surgeon
who did the operation.
According to authorities, Steidler turned himself in
after mailing the explosive device. Police were able
to recover the bomb from the mail and destroy it.
Steidler, 24, allegedly made an explosive device that
included a model-rocket engine igniter inside a
jewelry box, the federal indictment said.
Steidler drove to North Bloomfield, Ohio, on Feb. 10
and mailed the box, but then drove home to Lancaster
County, Pa., called 911, and turned himself in,
according to the indictment.
Special Agent John Hageman, a spokesman for the Bureau
of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms office in
Philadelphia, said the device "should have functioned
and produced an explosion. ... There may have been
shrapnel."
Steidler now faces a number of federal charges,
including using a weapon of mass destruction and
sending explosives through the mail.
