NEW YORK (AP) -- Police investigating a failed car bomb left in Times Square have videotape of a possible suspect shedding clothing in an alley and putting it in a bag and found a substance that resembled fertilizer in the parked SUV, Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Sunday.

The surveillance video shows a white man in his 40s taking off one shirt, revealing another underneath.

I suggest all white guys would be well advised to keep a low profile in the coming days.

Get Chief Moose on this.

He’s got a fantastic track record. White guy commits a crime, he’s goin’ down if the Moose Man has anything to say about it. Whoo whee.

[OldDeckHand]

We have no idea who he is, or why he did it, but we are positive he loves Rush Limbaugh, is a registered Republican, owns a handgun and a Bible, and listens to country music while attending Tea Parties. /s

I’m a white dude who could pass for mid-40s...and I work just two blocks from the attempted bombing...I better watch out.

Arabs are caucasian. Just saying.

"shedding clothing in an alley and putting it in a bag and found a substance that resembled fertilizer in the parked SUV"

What does one thing have to do with the other? Am I missing something?

Could have been a homeless guy taking his shirt off and putting it in his luggage (bag) for all we know.

[HarryCaul]

Or a guy changing clothes for work, or dozen other explanations. I’m not seeing an obvious connection here at all. He’s hardly the first man to change shirts in a NY alley.

There’s more they aren’t saying or this is nothing at all.

I find it interesting that the terrorist left 18-20 keys on the ring of keys in the ignition of the car.

I suggest you save yourself a lot of grief and go turn yourself in at the Times Square precinct headquarters. Here's a picture, in case you have a hard time with addresses:

Kelly said surveillance video shows the vehicle entering the area at 6:28 p.m. Saturday, and a vendor pointed the SUV out to an officer about two minutes later,

This vendor was johnny on the spot alerting an officer regarding this vehicle within two minutes of it's arrival into the area. hmmmmm I wonder what alarmed him about a green pathfinder? Was it parked on the sidewalk? There must be more to this vendor's story than we are being told.

"The commissioner said there's no evidence that a Pakistani Taliban videotaped claim to the failed car bombing is valid."

Amazing...shades of 9/10...
