KINGMAN – A federal grand jury in Phoenix has indicted a Kingman man for felony offenses involving drugs, weapons and explosives. Matthew Dach, 46, allegedly sold a rifle, ammunition, homemade explosives and methamphetamine in May and June to an undercover agent working for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
A news release issued by the United States Attorney’s Office District of Arizona said Dach also sold the undercover agent two destructive devices that he made in his Kingman home.
“The undercover agent told Dach that he needed a device to physically harm a witness who was testifying in a federal trial,” the press release said. “Dach made and sold one of the devices for that alleged purpose and then sold the other destructive device to the undercover agent during a sale of methamphetamine and explosives.”
The agency noted that Dach has prior felony convictions for drug and weapons offenses, as well as burglary and vehicle theft.
