Explosion in the Subway beneath Port Authority Bus Terminal

‎12-11-2017 08:23 AM

 

Details are sporadic right now, is seems the suspect was trying to get on the subway below the bus station. The device was either hand carried or on his person.

Port Authority itself is open but the subways beneath are all re routed or stopped

Suspect in custody.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

There is already video up on Twitter showing the explosion. This could have been so much worse.

Now it's being reported that it's closed.

Device was on a subway platform and exploded prematurely.  Two injuries reported, non-life threatening.

Everything is at a standstill.  Streets are closed, big problems into the city and around that area.  

 

 Bomb suspect is from Bangladesh.  He had an explosive vest and possible pipe bomb.  Went off prematurely and exploded in commuter passageway.
