FBI agents have raided the home of a Norman man Wednesday night after authorities found a possible explosive device in one of his bags at Will Rogers World Airport Wednesday morning.

Johnson said the suspicious item appeared to be an explosive device. Federal sources said security officials found a CO2 cartridge with a black-powder detonator and a wire in the man's carry-on bag. They're calling it an Improvised Explosive Device (IED).

Dreyling's carry-on bag was removed and Dreyling was detained until the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force responded to the scene.

Dreyling's father said that he believes the device was a homemade firecracker made during a recent family vacation.
