SALT LAKE CITY — A man has officially been charged in connection with an incident in which a gas can with a fuse was found placed and lit underneath a FOX 13 News vehicle earlier this month.

Christopher Solomon Proctor was charged in U.S. District Court with one count of Attempted Arson and one count of Possession of an Unregistered Destructive Device. According to charging documents, Proctor admitted to an acquaintance that he had committed the act.

The 2.5 gallon red gas can with a cannon fuse was found on Sept. 12 under the rear bumper of the station vehicle. Although the fuse had been lit, it "self-terminated" before reaching the can, which was about three-quarters full with gasoline.
