Peter Karasev was indicted by a federal criminal grand jury last week on allegations he planted explosives on electrical equipment in South San Jose.
in South San Jose now faces a federal indictment for the same alleged crimes, according to authorities and court records.
The mall bombing was discovered retroactively, after police began investigating the more recent case where a transformer exploded and caused damage to surrounding buildings, including blowing out the windows of a dental office. All told, 1,000 customers lost power because of the explosions.
A combination of surveillance video, including from a parked Tesla, and mobile phone ping tracking were used by police to pinpoint who was in the areas during the early-morning explosions. That search led them to suspect Karasev, according to an investigative summary accompanying the local criminal complaint.
Both transformer explosions occurred between 1:45 a.m. and 3 a.m., and similarities between the two instances — the same general location, time and method — led San Jose detectives to suspect one person was behind them. The cell phone tracking found one device was present at and around both scenes, and a cell-service warrant revealed Karasev landed in the overlap, police said.
