The search to find out who planted a car bomb that fizzled out in crowded Times Square took an international turn Monday as law enforcement officials said they were seeking a potential suspect who had recently traveled to Pakistan and had used cash to buy the SUV from a Connecticut man. Authorities identified the buyer of the SUV used in the botched bombing after interviewing the registered owner of the vehicle. One of the officials told The Associated Press that the potential suspect is a man of Pakistani descent who recently traveled to Pakistan.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because the case is at a sensitive stage.
The registered owner of an SUV that was parked in Times Square and rigged with a crude propane-and-gasoline bomb told investigators he sold the vehicle to a stranger for cash three weeks ago, a law enforcement official said Monday.
The owner, who lives in Connecticut, was questioned Sunday about his sale of the dark-colored 1993 Nissan Pathfinder to a man he did not know, the official told The Associated Press. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.
Officials say the owner, whose name has not been released, is not considered a suspect in the bomb scare. But the revelation of the sale leads authorities one step closer to whomever was aiming for mass carnage on a busy Saturday night in the heart of Times Square and achieved only streets emptied for hours of thousands of tourists.

As always, could just be another man with same name. Just posting whats out there.
ABC says he’s 30 and from Bridgeport.
That was the first thig I thought of. I swear!
The resemblance is uncanny. This guy would be about the right age now too.
Thought they said the suspect was in his forties. Whassup?
Been gone for just a few and it keeps changing by the minute.
The Connecticut link is interesting. There was some connection between the Tiger Tiger Nightclub bombing plot in the UK and Connecticut jihadist suspects. This of course would fit the style of the bomb.
Yes, I thought Connecticut was interesting, too.
Well, one suspect (Pakistani - naturalized American on his way to Dubai) has been caught and is in custody.
