CHESTER COUNTY, Pennsylvania (WGAL) — A man who brought guns to a “No Kings” protest in Chester County pleaded guilty after bombs were found in his home, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
Officials said Kevin Krebs, 32, of Malvern, was arrested on June 14 by the West Chester Police Department for carrying a firearm without a license at a “No Kings” protest.
Two days later, detectives searched his home and found explosive devices, including a pipe bomb and other related materials, in his garage, according to the attorney’s office.
Bomb technicians were called to examine the devices and determined that they contained nails and screws, which officials say are frequently used in improvised explosive devices (IEDs).
Krebs pleaded guilty on Dec. 18 to possession of an unregistered firearm or destructive device, the attorney’s office said.
Krebs is scheduled for sentencing on March 31 and could face a maximum of 10 years in prison, three years of supervised release and a $250,000 fine.
