No injuries were reported in the incident.
While officers had been waiting on the PBSO bomb squad, the report said, a man came up to speak with them. He said a man named Greg lived in a 12-apartment complex just 1,000 feet behind the Oakwood center.At the complex, the report said, officers came to a trash bin. Atop it, they found a brown cardboard box. It was partly open and contained black plastic bottles and vials used for prescription drugs.Police went to the unit, and Haasze stepped out.
The report said he admitted to setting off the pipe bomb that night, as well as three others earlier in the week, but said he wasn’t trying to hurt anyone. He said he loaded some devices with pellets to remove tree stumps from around his apartment. Haasze told the officers that, when he saw police and others swarming the area around his complex, “he realized he was in trouble” and decided to empty his apartment of the explosive materials.Police said they reopened most of the neighborhood at about midnight.
Boynton Beach police said Thursday they’d had no other dealings with Haasze in the past five years, except one incident in which he was a witness to an argument. PBSO reported no dealings with the man.Court records show Haasze is represented by the Palm Beach County Public Defender, which as a rule does not comment on active cases.
