A car thief on Thursday night found a bomb-laden van wired to detonate by remote control that likely had been sitting there for more than five months, sources said.
Investigators believe the homemade explosives found on a Brooklyn street in the Ford Econoline belonged to Yung Tang, 39, a Chinese national. He has been behind bars since he was caught Jan. 29 in Wallingford, Conn., with nearly identical bombs in his Mazda MPV minivan.
Also found in the MPV were two silencers, four hollow-point bullets and two radio-controlled detonators. Days after that arrest, the NYPD searched his Brooklyn house and found yet anther van, a Ford Explorer, full of similar explosive devices.
In May, Brooklyn prosecutors charged Tang with attempted murder for allegedly planting a bomb near the car of a commercial tenant he was trying to evict. The victim lost his foot in the 2002 blast.
The car thief was not expected to be charged.

Wow.. Thats some crazy shit. That dude was all about blowing some shit up I guess.
Not sure how I feel about the letting go of the thief. He did make the decision to tell the police what he did and what he found, so I could live with him getting a pardon I guess.
you didn't read very close. the thief saw the bombs, then drove the car from the residential area to a remote, mostly commercial area, then phoned a cop he knew (from a previous arrest). i'll give him the good samaritan card for driving it away from the residential area.

But he WAS attempting to steal the vehicle(until he noticed it was a death trap lol). But i do give him props for calling one of his previous arresting officers and confessing

You don't find crack just lying on the ground. I have never heard of a crackhead misplacing crack lol ... and if they do you'll find the crackhead on the ground crying/becoming frantic.
