Glosser faces federal and state charges for allegedly possessing, transporting and receiving an explosive device with the intent to kill and cause criminal damage to property. Kinsley has been charged for possession of a firearm by a felon. He allegedly fled to Louisiana before he found and turned himself in.
Houses in the neighborhood were rocked by the explosion, though no injuries were reported. Firefighters and law enforcement initially responded to an early morning explosion around the home’s garage. The victim is unknown and it’s unclear where she was at the time of the explosion.
Richmond Hill is a town in Bryan County, outside the Savannah metropolitan area.
