JACKSONVILLE, N.C. — A Navy corpsman has been charged with possession of a weapon of mass destruction in eastern North Carolina.

The Daily News of Jacksonville reported that 25-year-old Gregory Desmond McGill was charged Thursday by Onslow County sheriff’s deputies.

McGill had been arrested Tuesday after deputies said he had a concealed gun, ax, machete and Molotov cocktails in his car. The vehicle was about 100 feet from the Hubert Volunteer Fire Department, where his estranged wife’s roommate works.

While McGill was in jail, detectives found a military M81 time blasting fuse in his home Thursday and added the charge of possession of a weapon of mass destruction.

McGill was scheduled for a first appearance in court Friday. It was unclear where McGill was stationed and whether he had an attorney.
