Chemicals, ammo and drugs found after investigation into Olney home, Philadelphia police say

Key Points:

• Law enforcement agencies, including Philadelphia police homicide detectives and the FBI, are investigating after chemicals, ammunition, and drugs were found in a home in Olney, leading to the arrest of 44-year-old Eugene Horsch on drug and firearms charges.
• The investigation began when a park ranger encountered a disturbance involving Horsch and a woman, who presented an ID with the photo of a missing woman but a different name; Horsch was found with fake DEA credentials and two guns with obliterated serial numbers.
• Police discovered another gun, over 120 pieces of ballistics evidence, narcotics, and a large quantity of various chemicals in the basement of the Chew Avenue home, some of which could be dangerous if combined, though the exact purpose remains unclear.
• No bodies have been found in the home despite rumors, but urns labeled with family members' names were present; homicide detectives are involved due to their investigative experience.
• Horsch, a convicted felon, is being held on charges related to firearms and narcotics; his attorney claims the chemicals likely belong to Horsch’s father, who had a "very interesting past," and believes the items will be found harmless.
