FORT WORTH — A real estate broker accused of placing an explosive device on the front porch of his ex-wife's Colleyville home bought books on booby traps and bombs a year ago, authorities said Tuesday.
Federal authorities found a handwritten list of those books in the Fort Worth home of David Barouch last week during a search after he became a suspect.
Authorities also found 30 to 35 firearms that belonged to Barouch, who is an avid hunter, according to testimony during his detention hearing Tuesday.
Barouch, 51, was ordered by a federal magistrate to remain behind bars.
