The news:
Police found an apparent car bomb in a parked sport utility vehicle Saturday evening in New York City’s Times Square, then evacuated buildings and cleared streets of thousands of tourists in “the Crossroads of the World.”
A mounted police officer noticed smoke coming from the SUV at 6:30 p.m., police said. Bomb investigators found propane tanks, powder and an apparent timing device inside, according to a law enforcement official who wasn’t authorized to release the information and spoke on condition of anonymity.
An official tells Fox News that a dark SUV was found to have what initial reports indicated was a “failed incendiary device,” including gasoline, propane and wires.
A man was seen running from the vehicle, but authorities have not been able to find or identify him.
This is a bit frightening. Is it just a kook with a grudge, or part of a larger plot against America? Only time will tell on that.
But let this be a reminder that danger does lurk for us. There are people who wish to kill in great numbers for a variety of sick causes. Eternal vigilance is the prince we’ll have to pay to both protect our selves and preserve our liberty.
