Create Account Michael Gann, 55, built at least seven improvised explosive devices last month with chemicals he bought online in May and took the bombs to Manhattan, according to an indictment handed up Tuesday by a grand jury. Gann, of Long Island, stored some on the devices on the rooftops of adjoining residential buildings and threw another onto the subway tracks on the Williamsburg Bridge, prosecutors said. No one was injured by any of the devices. Gann was arrested in early June near the buildings, and authorities said he he had one of the devices in his possession. Gann put 'countless lives at risk,' Jay Clayton, the interim U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, said in a statement. Gann is charged with attempted destruction of property by means of explosives, transportation of explosive materials, and unlawful possession of destructive devices. He could face up to 40 years in prison if convicted on all counts. A judge ordered Gann detained following a bail hearing. His lawyer, Martin Cohen, declined comment Wednesday.

French skiing federation suspends Olympic medalist Joël Chenal amid sexual harassment allegations

PARIS (AP) — The French skiing federation has provisionally suspended Joël Chenal, an Olympic silver medalist and a former national coach, amid accusations of sexual harassment against minors. The federation's move on Wednesday came after French newspaper Le Monde spoke with 12 women over alleged incidents between 2005 and 2021 when they were minors. Chenal, a silver medalist in giant slalom at the 2006 Turin Olympics, was among the France national team coaches from 2013-17. 'Following the publication today of a new press article providing new information, including the identity of witnesses, and following the initial testimonies gathered by its ethics committee, the president of the federation has decided to open disciplinary proceedings with the immediate provisional suspension of Joel Chenal,' the federation said in a statement. Le Monde reported that Chenal is the subject of a complaint for sexual assault. The federation said it will join the legal case. 'This demonstrates its commitment to supporting victims, cooperating fully with the judicial authorities and shedding light on these unacceptable events,' the federation said. Le Monde has said previously that Chenal denies the accusations. ___ AP Sports:
