Michigan Teen Explodes Home After Rejected by Girl Met Just Five Days Prior: Facing Adult Charges

Seven individuals, including three children, narrowly escaped injury after 17-year-old Jonathan Michael Brady allegedly detonated an explosive in their suburban Michigan home. Incensed by a rejected advance from a female cousin, Brady's reckless act displaced the family. As flames consumed their residence, patriarch Delvon Lee focused on ensuring everyone’s safety. Brady now faces serious charges, including home invasion and arson, with potential penalties of up to 20 years. Prosecutor Peter J. Lucido emphasized the need for justice, resulting in Brady being charged as an adult.
