NYPD: Video has possible SUV bomb suspect in alley

NYPD: Video has possible SUV bomb suspect in alley

By TOM HAYS and DEEPTI HAJELA, Associated Press Writers


NEW YORK – Police investigating a failed car bomb left in Times Square have videotape of a possible suspect shedding clothing in an alley and putting it in a bag and found a substance that resembled fertilizer in the parked SUV, Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Sunday.

The surveillance video shows a white man in his 40s taking off one shirt, revealing another underneath.

Kelly said officers were on their way to a Pennsylvania town to talk to a tourist who also might have recorded the suspect on his video camera.

The commissioner said there's no evidence that a Pakistani Taliban videotaped claim to the failed car bombing is valid.

1. If it's a white guy
I'm taking bets on how long it is until the media stops calling it a terrorist attempt. Any takers?

2. Too late
The DHS has claimed they are investigating it as a potential terrorist attack.

4. A white guy eh? Well that explains why on CNN they were saying
that it wasn't *really* a car bomb, just a bunch of stuff that could catch fire, and that maybe all the guy was doing was trying to send a message.

Un Fucking Real.

5. They know who owns the SUV but are not releasing the name
The Pathfinder's vehicle identification number had been removed from the dashboard, but officials recovered it from another location on the car, a federal law enforcement official told CNN.

Kelly said officials have identified the registered owner of the Pathfinder, but were not yet making his name public.


I wonder if the owner is a white middle aged male?
