It is understood to have originated from a device placed in a skip outside the
Associated Blind Housing facility at 135 W. 23rd Street.

A second device was found four blocks away on West 27th Street.
According to several local news sources it was a pressure cooker attached
to a mobile phone by tape with protruding wires.

People living on West 27th Street were instructed to stay away from their
windows while the device was investigated.
Police combed, aided by sniffer dogs, combed rubbish bins to ensure
there were no other devices...'

'...NY's mayor says there is no specific link between the blast in his city and
the one on the route of a New Jersey charity run.

A small bomb that exploded along the route of a road race in New Jersey on
Saturday morning contained multiple devices that failed to go off, authorities
have said.

No one was injured in the blast on Ocean Avenue in the town of Seaside Park,
which happened at around 9.30am, shortly before 3,000 runners were due to
take part in a charity race to benefit US marines and sailors.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said there was no specific connection between
the New Jersey blast and the explosion in Manhattan on Saturday evening that left
29 people injured.

I suppose it's not Over.
Quote:ST. CLOUD, Minn. (AP) -- The Latest on the stabbing of eight people at a central Minnesota shopping mall (all times local):
3:30 p.m.
The father of the man who stabbed nine people at a central Minnesota mall has identified him as a 22-year-old college student.
Ahmed Adan told the Star Tribune of Minneapolis that police told him Saturday night that his son, Dahir A. Adan, died at Crossroads Center mall in St. Cloud.

An Islamic State-run news agency claims the man who stabbed and wounded eight people at a mall in Minnesota before being shot dead by an off-duty police officer was a "soldier of the Islamic State."
The IS-run Rasd news agency reported the claim on Sunday, saying the attacker had heeded calls from the extremist group for attacks in countries that are part of a U.S.-led anti-IS coalition.
It was not immediately clear if the extremist group had planned the attack or even knew about it beforehand. IS has encouraged so-called "lone wolf" attacks. It has also claimed past attacks that are not believed to have been planned by its central leadership.

Quote:A 911 caller warned of further explosions right afterthe blast that rocked Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood and injured 29 people, The Post has learned.

“I’m looking at the explosion down the block. There will be more,” the unidentified male said, claiming to be standing at 23rd Street and Seventh Avenue in the aftermath of the terrifying incident, according to law-enforcement sources Sunday.

Investigators believe the blast was the result of a home-made, pressure-cooker bomb similar to an unexploded device found later on 27th Street, sources said.
In another new wrinkle, a hand-written letter, a portion of which is in Arabic, was found inside a plastic bag that held the second device, sources said.
Cops were interviewing two men who claim to have spotted a potential person of interest in the case, sources said.
The witnesses were dining at the Krush bar and grill on 32nd Street about a half-hour before the 8:30 p.m. Saturday explosion when they saw an Arab-looking man who was carrying a suitcase and appeared out of place, sources said.

Ahmad Khan Rahami, 28, is the first person identified in connection with the incident. New York City Mayor de Blasio said Rahami is believed to be armed and dangerous.
Rahami is a naturalized United States citizen who was born in Afghanistan, according to the FBI. His last known address was in Elizabeth, N.J., where authorities found pipe bombs in a garbage can Monday morning.
