Fourth Bomb Detonates in Austin Overnight, Injuring Two: āNo Leading Suspect At This Timeā
A wave of explosions in Austin, Texas have the city in a panic, sending residents within a mile and a half radius of the newest bombing ā the fourth in a month ā into lockdown.
The bombing, which happened overnight, was caused by a trip wire, leading police to believe that the suspect is more skilled at building explosives than they first believed. It injured two white men, who were rushed to a local hospital.
This is the fourth in a string of reported explosions, the first occurring only 17 days ago. Police have followed up on over 700 phone calls about suspicious activity and packages. There is a $115,000 reward for a tip that will lead to the perpetrator.
āYou may have the one piece of information that lets us put this all together,ā Austin Police Chief Brian Manley said at a press conference.
Manley also told Good Morning Americaās David Muir that while police have received āa lot of good tips,ā there is āno leading suspect at this time.ā
The victims of the other bombings were black and Hispanic, leading police to believe that the bombings may be hate crimes; they are not ruling out that possibility.
āWeāre one of the safest cities in the country now dealing with horrific events,ā Austin Mayor Steve Adler told Muir. āThe important message is if you see anything that is suspicious, donāt go near it. Call 911.ā
what jprince doing about this?
aint no texas niggas giving no fly zones to the bomber?
I wondered if they switched up their targets. It was mostly black ppl being targeted, along with the Hispanic woman.
Have they released who were the targets?

Street JusticeIts kinda crazy that someone is running around making bombs and its not even a top 5 newstory... due to the saturation of the political happenings. I mean i get it in some respects but this guy is out there terrorizing a community.
look bruh......i see what you trying to say......Bruh, I understand what you're trying to do here, but how is JPJ or any other person w/ a dash of power gonna have a "No Fly Zone" on a person/people if you don't know who the hell they are??
The best thing the community of Austin can do is be extremely vigilant and diligently pay attention to their surroundings and neighborhoods. I think whoever is pulling these coward ass acts, are doing them @ night tho, which obviously makes it difficult for people to see since most are sleep or not outside.
On another note, "Ring" door cams and house security cams sells in general have to be boomin' out there right now.
exactly....I'm with dos
If I was in a respected position of power, I would openly challenge the police to catch homie before my people do just like penguin did in Gotham....
