Overview
- Christopher Solomon Proctor, 45, has pleaded not guilty to attempted arson and possession of an unregistered destructive device.
- Prosecutors say a lit fuse on a 2.5-gallon gas can placed under the truck on Sept. 12 burned out before the gasoline ignited.
- Investigators cite a DNA match from the gas can, surveillance video, a license-plate reader hit and an acquaintance’s account of an admission.
- A Sept. 20 search recovered boots, tactical gloves, an empty gas can with a carved hole and a multicolored fuse, and records show he bought more fuse and drove past the station days later.
- Authorities say separate state hoax-device charges against two Magna men are unrelated, and they report no evidence tying the incident to Charlie Kirk’s killing.
