(KAIR)--Nearly three years in prison.

That's the sentence handed down to a Saint Joseph, Missouri man charged for the criminal use of explosives and possession of methamphetamine.

KQ2-TV reports that 32-year-old Simon Pohl learned his fate in Leavenworth County District Court.

Authorities allege he was found to be in possession of explosives, and meth, in April, but disappeared until a Brown County traffic stop in May landed him back in custody.

Pohl had been accused of placing pipe bombs on vehicles in Leavenworth.
