Published



CATHEDRAL CITY, Calif. (AP) — Authorities have burned a mobile home in the Southern California desert because it was filled with explosive chemicals and materials for homemade bombs.

The Riverside Press-Enterprise (http://bit.ly/TGKI49 ) says the home at the Sungate County Mobile Home Park in Cathedral City was set ablaze shortly after 10:30 p.m. Friday. Authorities decided that it was safer to burn it than to try hauling away the materials.
