This seems to be the street that goes south off of Boyd. It is not a traffic circle, it just leads into the University, I think adminstration offices, but not 100% sure on that.
There are those who think that the McVeigh Oklahoma City bombing was alQ-related
I honestly don't know of any pipe bomb that would shake a college football stadium.
Building 31 is the cross center....
The reports of a second device are already being denied this morning. A rewrite IMO.
He might have intended to set them both off at once, and one of them malfunctioned.
I don't know how to post a graphic--too new here at posting.
You need the legend that goes with it, with the key numbers.
The stadium is obvious, but the building described is #31, the taller building just west of the stadium, George Lynn Cross Hall, the Botany/Microbiology building.
Meaning little to go on to assume it was part of a failed terrorist attack. That was the arguement with some when I posted that LAST NIGHT ..People were in "assumption" mode last night and it was turning this story into another 9/11..Just woke up here and it looks like the story hasen't moved much since last night .
#48 is the botany/microbiology building.
Looks like there's good size parking lot right there.
If this was a suicide bomber, I'd bet his bomb went off early and he was waiting for the crowds of people leaving the game to walk by him.
Maybe I should put on my tinfoil hat here, but I'm wondering if the MSM is intentionally downplaying this story. I thought it would be the lead story on FOX News this morning but instead it was halfway through the broadcast before it was mentioned and then it was for only a few seconds....
bump and place marking
Thanks for the ping!
Just found over at CNN there is video of a statement read by an authority on the scene last night. He stated that a second device was found. The statement was apparently the first made by the school's president...
Here is the link to the page at CNN:
http://www.cnn.com/video/
The video is the first under U.S. titled;
Explosion occurs near U.S. Stadium
Well, those didn't line up very well...........
They're denying the second device now.
It could be that, or it could be "flash"-- the hard actinic light, rich in ultraviolet and infrared radiation. Like a giant flashbulb, if you are old enough to remember those things.
