According to police, on Thursday between 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., fireworks were set off along Kennedy Drive in the Fairless Hills section of the township. Some of the fireworks caused burn damage to a 52-year-old woman’s vehicle and caused damage to her home while she was inside.
Police said both Sandersons took part in the Thursday incident that caused damage to the woman’s property. They live on the same street as woman’s home.
Neal Sanderson reportedly communicated to the woman in the past that he dreamed about blowing up her house and damaging her car as a way to “get her back” for a previous incident in which he ended up in prison. Police did not release more information on the previous incident.

At the Kennedy Drive home where the Sandersons live, an officer saw a glass smoking pipe “for the inhaling of illicit substances,” police said.
Neal Sanderson was arraigned last Friday and remanded to the Bucks County Correctional Facility on 10 percent of $50,000 bail. Kevin Sanderson was arraigned and released on $15,000 unsecured bail.
