The man who allegedly threw a bomb inside a California courthouse this
week, injuring five people, said he was upset about his firearms being
taken away, authorities said.

Nathaniel James McGuire, 20, of Santa Maria, is charged with
maliciously damaging a building by means of an explosive, the Justice
Department said Friday.

He was expected to appear in a Los Angeles federal court Friday.

"This defendant will now face justice in federal court for his alleged
attack that injured at least five people and struck fear across a
county courthouse and an entire community," said U.S. Attorney General
Merrick Garland.

McGuire entered the lobby of a Santa Maria courthouse Wednesday, and
threw a bag with a bomb, which exploded, federal prosecutors said.
After the blast, he fled on foot.

Five people were injured.

McGuire was arrested a short time later while trying to get into a Ford
Mustang parked outside the building, authorities said. He allegedly
yelled that the "government had taken his guns and that everyone needed
to fight, rise up, and rebel," the Justice Department said.

Police say McGuire's motive stemmed from a previous arrest for having
an unregistered firearm. He was due in court the morning of the
incident.

Family Says

Inside McGuire's car, a Santa Barbara sheriff's deputy allegedly
spotted ammunition, a flare gun, and a box of fireworks. Inside,
authorities found a shotgun, a rifle, more ammunition, a suspected
bomb, and 10 Molotov cocktails, prosecutors said.

Law enforcement later rendered the bomb safe.

At McGuire�s home, authorities allegedly found an empty can with nails
glued to the outside, a duffel bag containing matches, black powder,
used and unused fireworks, and papers that appeared to be recipes for
explosive material.

None of the five people hit by the explosion faced life-threatening
injuries, police say. Four were transported directly to the hospital
from the scene, and the fifth traveled to the hospital on their own.

The victims were treated for injuries including burns, and they have
now all been released from the hospital.

McGuire faces up to 40 years in prison.
