The man police say is the chief suspect in two bombings in Salt Lake City, in which two people were killed, was charged with a federal firearms violation unrelated to the blasts. Mark Hofmann, 31, was charged with one count of possession of an Uzi submachine gun, U.S. Atty. Brent Ward said. The charge was filed just hours after Hofmann left the hospital, where he had been recovering from injuries received when his car blew up Oct. 16. That blast is believed to have been an accident.
