Report: Mobster's tip revealed explosives

Oklahoma City, OK, Apr. 15 (UPI) -- A mobster in prison with Oklahoma City bombing accomplice Terry Nichols revealed where Nichols had hidden explosives, the Oklahoman reported Friday.

Gregory Scarpa Jr., a New York mobster who belongs to the Colombo organized crime family, provided the information that led to the recovery of the explosives March 31 and April 1 at Nichols' former home in Herington, Kan., the newspaper said.

The FBI has not said officially who provided the tip, but law enforcement sources told the Oklahoman that Nichols revealed the location to Scarpa. They are both serving time in the maximum-security federal prison in Florence, Colo.

FBI agents dug up hundreds of blasting caps and other explosive materials under Nichols house that apparently had been there for at least 10 years.

Nichols is serving life sentences with no possibility of parole for his role in the April 19, 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building that killed 168 people. Timothy McVeigh, the mastermind, was executed in 2001.

Scarpa is serving federal prison time on drug trafficking, murder conspiracy and racketeering convictions.
