    What a strange photo. Is this 2 guys or just one?

    Fortunately for us all, bomb-making is not as easy as the Internet leads people to believe.

    A couple of others, too, according to the press conference I'm watching but he was the only "serious" injury.

    I edited after realizing there were reports of other injuries. For accuracy's sake.

    They just showed the video, a lot of people in that tunnel. One of the injuries was described as "ringing in the ears."

    First description I heard if the suspect described him simply as a “Brooklyn native.”

    Can't believe Trump almost pulled it off.

    That photo will be the next blue dress or white dress viral sensation.

    I am not sure I am hearing accurate info. Not focused on this. But sounds like he detonated in that long tunnel / passageway that connects the 1/2/3 @ 7th Ave. to the A/C/E @ 8th Ave. Even there, at the wrong time, could have produced a ton of carnage. Sometimes there are a ton of people walking through there. Lucky it wasn't worse.

    If that's where he did it, that place is insanely crowded during rush hours. It might not cause the chaos or carnage of a train between stations, but it is a prime spot to target.
