Bombing Times Square

Times Square Bombing and Homeland Security are the Topics. Letters claiming responsibility for the bombing of a military recruiting station in New York's Times Square arrived in the Washington offices of several members of Congress on Thursday, just hours after the blast, authorities said.

Police are searching for a hooded bicyclist seen on a surveillance tape just before an early morning bombing at the office, according to the FBI.

The letters sent to Capitol Hill contained at least one picture of the station, apparently before the attack, a law enforcement official familiar with the investigation told CNN.
Police knew of fewer than 10 of the letters that had been received by members of Congress, a second law enforcement source said.
The letters were all received by Democrats, another law enforcement source said.
They contained a picture of a man standing in front of the recruiting station with the statement "We did it," according to an e-mail sent by the office of Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, and obtained by CNN.WNBC-TV

NEW YORK - Nearly a full day after the explosion in Times Square, law enforcement officials said they had no suspects. WNBC.com has learned NYPD, Homeland Security and FBI officials are now revisiting an incident that occurred along the Canadian border last month, concerned there might be a possible connection to the Times Square explosion.
Four men trying to cross the border attempted to flee the checkpoint as Canadian officials tried to question them, investigators said.
Two of the men got away, officials said. The men left behind a backpack with photos of various New York City locations including Times Square, according to sources speaking on condition of anonymity. One of the photos included the military recruitment center, officials said. As a precaution, NYPD outreach officers last month went to various New York City businesses, including the Times Square military recruitment center, to investigate if there had been any specific threats. No threat information was known at the time, a law enforcement source said.

@blackjerryboymetal why does this always end up which side is more violent? Both sides have done stupid and violent things in their past. It's not like one side is pure good and the other is pure evil. It's a political view.
