A pipe bomb, like the ones police discovered during the arrest of a fugitive in Cambria on Jan. 10.

The Hillsdale County Sheriff’s Office and Michigan State Police discovered two pipe bombs in a Cambria residence after arresting fugitive Michael Lyon on Jan. 10.

“The 35-year-old suspect barricaded himself in the home initially but eventually surrendered without incident,” according to a press release from the Department of Homeland Security’s Technical Resource for Incident Prevention.

Court records show Lyon was originally wanted on charges stemming from an October 2022 burglary. He was arraigned on Jan. 11.

“Hillsdale County Sheriff’s Office, Michigan State Police, Region of Irish Hills Narcotics Office, and Michigan State Police Emergency Response Team executed a search warrant at a residence in Cambria following an investigation of a wanted fugitive and discovered two pipe bombs and several firearms,” the press release said.

Police then safely disposed of the bombs on site, according to the press release.

Lyon was arraigned on Jan. 11. A probable cause conference is scheduled for Feb. 1, according to the Hillsdale 2B District Court docket. Hillsdale County Prosecuting Attorney Neal Brady is prosecuting the case, and local attorney Keith Stickley is representing Lyon.

According to the sheriff’s office a $100,000 bond was allowed but not posted.

Michigan Department of Corrections records show Lyon also served three years in prison after being convicted in 2004 for breaking and entering a building with intent to burglarize.

The sheriff’s office and Irish Hills narcotics office did not respond to requests for comment in time for publication.
