A man has been charged with bringing an explosive device into Sacramento International Airport (SMF), federal prosecutors announced Tuesday. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of California, a criminal complaint was filed against 49-year-old Sacramento resident Kimani Osayande Jones, also known as Kimani Osayande Jackson, accusing him of unlawfully possessing explosive material in an airport.

Court documents state that around 9 p.m. on May 30, Jones attempted to pass through a Transportation Security Administration checkpoint at SMF to board a flight. Prosecutors said Jones was wearing a scarf covering his face and latex gloves. Investigators allege his carry-on bag contained an M-type explosive device, a torch lighter capable of igniting it, a knife, scissors and scissor blades, an aerosol can and zip ties. Authorities also said Jones was carrying five cellphones. One phone allegedly had a 15-minute timer ready to start, while another displayed a message from an unidentified number that read, “we will be awaiting your call.”
