The telling quotes from the story:
1) Melaku had a bag with a substance that at least initially appeared to be ammonium nitrate, which can be used in explosives with the correct concentration, according to a law-enforcement official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk about the investigation. The chemical compound is also widely used in fertilizers.
But the official said there was nothing in the bag that could have detonated or resulted in an explosion.
2) "I can tell you this was not a device and that the products in the backpack are inert," said Brenda Heck, special agent in charge of the counterterrorism unit at the FBI's Washington field office.
3) Melaku remained in the custody of the U.S. Park Police as investigators in protective white suits and bomb-sniffing dogs went through his brick town home in suburban Washington and removed evidence.
I swear to <insert diety of choice> that everything these days is part of a terrorist plot, even when it is totally unrelated to terrorism.
