Roosevelt Billups, 42, was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of planting "hoax bombs" at Boeing's headquarters at 100 N. Riverside Plaza and at One Prudential Plaza. Billups faces two additional charges, according to the report: "one count of felony possession of a controlled substance and a misdemeanor charge of drug paraphernalia possession."
Earlier the police alerted the community about three separate instances of suspicious packages resembling explosives being placed near "prominent downtown buildings," the report said. Someone recognized Billups as a person of interest from the community alert and called the police.
Police refused to confirm when the crimes occurred or when the phony bombs were planted.
