VIDEO: A Beaver Dam apartment explosion that killed one man and displaced about 150 residents on Monday appears to be the result of bomb-making activity and "is not a meth lab," Chief John Kreuziger said at a morning press briefing. The body of the man killed in the blast on the second floor of the Village Glen Apartments remained in the apartment, unidentified, as Kreuziger addressed reporters and concerned residents. Investigators found more than one chemical inside the apartment, but the exact nature of those chemicals was unknown as of 10:30 a.m., the chief said. Asked if the explosion was the result of terrorist activity, Kreuziger quickly answered: "We don't know if it is."
