Foreclosed Homeowner 'Booby-Traps' Home

Hell hath no fury like a homeowner scorned.

The FBI, a bomb squad, and first responders donning hazmat suits converged on a foreclosed home in South Seattle on Monday, according to KOMO News. The reason? Police believe the former owner booby-trapped the home in anticipation of his eviction.

As it turns out, though, the homeowner's plot was more a gesture of defiance than deliberate mayhem. No explosives were found in the home and the suspicious powder reported by the cleanup crew turned out to be an admixture of sugar and fire extinguisher residue.
