Yeah, yeah, yeah....and there was a bomb at the JFK library too, right?

Nobody, other than the people directly dealing with the situation, knows anything yet and the people who are working on it and are in the know have their hands full.

At this point, the best thing you get is a bad game of telephone, with the Chief of BPD himself reporting incorrect information when first speaking to the media. There is a lot of bad information out there at this point and a lot of idiots reporting their neighbors for "suspicious activities".

There is a reason why the President's address to the nation is not happening for another 10 minutes and trust me these are not spent on make up.

This being said, given the limited information, if I had to make a guess now I would say that it was a bomb - but at the same time this does not appear to be a well-planned attack organized by a foreign terrorist cell with anti-American or religiously fanatical ideology.

In any case, what has happened is absolutely horrible.
