Police say Wills was not home when officers, but they found 12 long guns, three handguns, ammunition, fireworks and materials and chemicals that could be used to make explosive devices.
Wills was located in central New York and was arrested at a relative’s home, according to police.
The Union County Bomb Squad removed the items from Wills’ home. No one was hurt. Police say there is no threat to the public.
Wills was charged with third-degree creating a false public alarm.
