Teen's Basement Experiment? Homemade Bomb!

Last night, a teenager who was apparently "mixing dangerous materials" in his basement created a smoke condition requiring the police to come by! Apparently the cops were at the North Babylon home for 10 hours (!) and there may have been agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. The teen was hospitalized with undisclosed injuries. Update: Not a meth lab, folks—the Suffolk police now say it was an "improvised explosive device."
