Officer thinks he will find drugs in this car, but the pipe he finds is far more "explosive."
Sergeant Ryan Owens with the Putnam County Sheriff's Office in Palatka, Florida, initiated a traffic stop on a pickup truck driven by 60-year-old Charles Legault. The initial reason for the pull-over was a simple vehicle registration issue: an unregistered license plate attached to the truck.
When questioned by Sgt. Owens, Legault gave conflicting information—claiming he was on his way to Lowe's despite traveling in the complete opposite direction.
Legault also casually informed the deputy that he had an open .22 caliber pistol sitting directly on his front bench seat.
Detecting the odor of burnt marijuana, Sgt. Owens conducted a consensual search of the vehicle. During the search, deputies uncovered:
Multiple dime baggies
A glass pipe containing residue in the driver's door pocket
A baggie of marijuana
Although Legault initially claimed the pipe wasn't his, he eventually admitted to using illegal substances the previous evening.
Sgt. Owens reached into the cab near the bench seat where various tools and rigged materials were resting. Without warning, a rigged PVC pipe device ruptured, releasing a heavy cloud of chemical powder and gas directly into the deputy.
Sgt. Owens managed to call for emergency backup, place Legault in handcuffs, and secure the scene after the unknown pipe ruptured.
Investigators and a local hazmat unit later confirmed the device was a improvised chemical bomb constructed from p00l chlorine and br@ke fluid. Sgt. Owens was checked out medically and fully recovered.
The legal proceedings concluded in July 2026. After entering a no contest plea in May 2026 to charges including making/discharging a destructive device resulting in harm, armed drug trafficking, and carrying a concealed firearm during a felony, Charles Legault was sentenced to 20 years in Florida state prison.
