Sapulpa Police arrested a father and son early Wednesday morning in connection with two pipe bombs found in an SUV at the Creek County Courthouse.

Officers say surveillance video led them to Berry and Christopher Nichols.

2 Works for You was there overnight as police found the blue Chevy pickup they believe the men were driving.

Officers say the suspects slashed a woman's tires, then put two pipe bombs in the console of her SUV.

Authorities safely removed the bombs Tuesday night. No one was hurt.

Detectives say the father, Berry Nichols,  was previously involved in another case with the victim -- and was charged with shooting with intent to kill.

Police say the father confessed, saying he and his son were trying to scare the woman.

The pair now faces multiple charges.
