A Lake Elsinore man who went to a hospital emergency room with his hand blown off was in custody today, along with his brother and mother, on suspicion of making explosives and child endangerment, a sheriff’s sergeant said.
The allegations stem from explosives found at the family’s home, where the mother ran a licensed daycare facility, said sheriff’s Sgt. Dennis Gutierrez.
Benjamin Kuzelka, 23, walked into a hospital late Wednesday and told emergency personnel that he had shot his own hand, said sheriff’s Sgt. Dennis Gutierrez.
An examination of the wound determined it was not consistent with a gunshot, and Kuzelka later told deputies that he had been injured by explosives, Gutierrez said.
Sheriff’s deputies, along with agents from the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, went to his home at 30524 Audelo Street and found bomb-making materials and marijuana plants, the sergeant said.

Kuzelka was in serious condition and will be arrested when he recuperates.
His brother, Grey Timothy Kuzelka, 21, was arrested and booked into the county jail. He had been free on bail since Sunday, following an arrest on suspicion of drug possession, sales and transport.
Their mother, Rebecca Kuzelka, 55, was also arrested.
Anyone with additional information are encouraged to contact Investigator Denver Saucier at the Lake Elsinore Station, 951-245-3300.
