TX: Package bombs in Austin

[SewTexas]

I don't know what to make of this. If the trip wire bomb and the ones here (I'm in Schertz) were "copy-cats". Then that would mean that the first two or three were targeted and the guy is maybe done, and that would just be weird. With the trip wire, I could believe he's learning. But with these....I seriously believe these could be a copy-cat, and if they try to lay them on the original guy and he gets mad, more may die. They need to find the original guy, like, yesterday.

I just know that I won't talk to any Fed, without a lawyer, I saw what they did to Scooter Libby, Martha Stewart, and Michael Flynn. If the localPD or DPS want to talk to me fine. But I won't ever talk to any Fed.

8:45 p.m. Previous reports of a possible second device at a South Austin Goodwill store where an explosion was reported now appear to be linked to what officials say was an unrelated car fire near the location.

It's hard to know what to believe.

[roadkill]

Witnesses on the news station going Facebook live had a witness that described the car on fire to be a state trooper car and supposedly one of the reporters spoke with some law enforcement officer who confirmed it was a police vehicle.

[SewTexas]

they are now saying it was an "incendiary" device and unrelated to the bombings. I don't understand the difference, but I guess there is enough of one that they know it's not "the guy". This just makes me mad, because this is some kind of a copy-cat.

Who knows now.

Police car fire, or bomb at Goodwill?

Ok maybe it’s both. Unrelated car fire. A donated flare at Goodwill was dropped and it burst into flames.

Now being called an incendiary device.

But it sounds like a car flare.

A guy on Reddit is claiming he’s the bomber. Wants to be as famous as the zodiac killer. Loves all the attention.

[mrvmax]

They got him this morning. I figured it was a matter of time since you can’t go anywhere without passing a security camera plus the fact that his bombings were so close together. Every bomb gives them more evidence.

(CNN) — The suspect in the Austin explosions has died, multiple CNN affiliates reported, citing law enforcement sources. CNN is working to confirm this latest information.

A man whom authorities were attempting to arrest early Wednesday in a string of bombing attacks in Austin killed himself with an explosive device as authorities closed in, a high-ranking law enforcement official told the American-Statesman.

They are continuing the investigation to determine if the suspect was acting alone. I pray this is the case and if not, the others will be quickly identified and apprehended.
