Police have made more arrests following an investigation into acid bombs left at an Orlando college.

Seven boys have arrested in the case. The Orlando Sentinel reports (http://thesent.nl/x3sjyM ) two 16-year-olds were arrested Friday on charges of detonating a destructive device on the campus of Valencia College.

Arrested earlier this week were two 9-year-olds and three other teens.

Acid bombs have been found on the college campus three times over the past few weeks. According to a police report, the acid bomb did about $300 worth of damage. No one was hurt.

Police say the bombs are typically made with household chemicals.
