to the scene, sources told ABC News.
Austin has been on edge for a month after a series of bombings which killed two and injured four people.
The first three bombings were packages, apparently hand delivered police said, that exploded after being
picked up by residents at the homes.
The fourth explosion took place Sunday night. Two men in their 20s were injured in that explosion,
which was caused by a device using a trip wire on a sidewalk in the city's Travis Country neighbourhood...'
