Ocean Park Man Arrested For Criminal Attempt to Manufacture an Explosive Device  
 
 
                                  
Ocean Park, WA. – On March 9th at about 5:27 PM, a female caller reported to the Pacific County Communications Center that her ex-boyfriend had sent her electronic images of what appeared to be an explosive device that he had manufactured. Deputies with the Pacific County Sheriff’s Office were advised of the matter and made contact with the female caller. She provided deputies with the images that were sent to her of the suspected explosive device.
 
Deputies viewed the images and they appeared to contain the various stages of the explosive device being constructed. The images showed what appeared to be the contents or materials used to pack into the device. Deputies noticed what appeared to be packets of gun powder, copper and lead bullets and pellets from a shotgun shell within the device. One of the images depicted the device being held in a hand which the female identified as belonging to her ex-boyfriend due to the jacket sleeve in the photo.
 
The caller advised that she didn’t know why her ex-boyfriend had sent her the pictures, and that he had made no threats to use the device. She did state that her ex-boyfriend, whom she identified as Justice Webb, had been experiencing some depression and that he could be volatile. The images of the device were sent electronically to a member of the Washington State Patrol Explosives Unit which identified the device as appearing to be a viable explosive. The Sheriff’s Office requested that the WSP Explosives Unit respond to the residence to assist with the investigation and safe removal of the device if located.
 
Deputies contacted and attempted to contact residents in the general area of the suspect residence to advise them of the situation in the event of an explosion.
 
Deputies were able to detain Justice V. Webb, age 24, of Ocean Park regarding the incident. A search warrant for his residence, located in the 26200 block of Sandridge road, was prepared and granted. Deputies served the warrant upon the residence and discovered some of the same material used to construct the device that had been viewed in the images along with tools used. The device depicted in the images was not initially located.
 
Webb was questioned about the incident further and he led deputies to a freshly dug spot in his back yard. He explained to deputies that he had buried the device. The WSP Explosives Unit excavated the device from the ground and safely analyzed it. The device did contain gun powder, pellets and bullets but however didn’t have a detonator. Webb stated that his intent was to create a device that would later detonate. He advised that he had buried the device because he had received a message from his ex-girlfriend that she had called the Sheriff’s Office on him. Webb was booked into the Pacific County Jail and currently has a bail of $ 20,000.00.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact: Tim Martindale Jr, Director
Pacific County Communications

South Bend, Washington – Pacific County Communications provides media reports to media outlets and a 24 hour call log on the Pacific County Sheriff’s Office website. These reports are then published in local newspapers and online. Citizens of Pacific County then use these reports to make themselves aware of what types of emergencies are occurring in their neighborhoods.
 
Pacific County Communications utilizes a Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system and Records Management System (RMS). This system is used in tracking calls for service, law records, jurisdictional information and geographic information systems (GIS) data that is associated with addresses. Within the CAD system, the GIS data had not been updated in several years and had become outdated. The media report and the 24 hour call log is derived from this system.
 
November 12, 2018  Pacific County Communications conducted an upload of new GIS data. Immediately following the upload it was discovered that several problems had occurred. These problems included a lack of location information on the media report, a lack of location information on the 24 hour log and duplicate case numbers for law enforcement calls for service. These problems were identified and contact was made with the Pacific County Communications GIS Specialist, Systems Administrator and the CAD vendor.
 
Over the past several months research has been conducted in order to identify what the cause of the problems are. At this time the root of the issue has been identified and discussions surrounding how to rectify this issue have been ongoing. There is optimism that this will be completed soon. Director Martindale states “This has been a long process but I feel there is light at the end of the tunnel. We continue to work on this issue diligently so that we can continue to offer this service for the benefit of our citizens and communities.”
