An amputee missing both legs was arrested Thursday after police said he was wheeled into a busy New York City train station and planted a bomb.
Police found the bomb before it could detonate, but the discovery interrupted regional train lines briefly and closed the station for several hours.
The alleged device—a bag of small explosives wrapped in shotgun shells, along with bullets, glue, lug nuts, pens and a ruler—was left in a waiting area at a station in Harlem. Police later surveyed security videos to identify suspects including, Roosevelt Terry, the amputee. Police from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, which runs the Metro-North Railroad that was shut down, arrested Mr. Terry late in the afternoon.

This guy won’t have leg to stand during his trial.....
You beat me to it!
IS the accused a follower of the ROP?
“Roosevelt Terry, the amputee.”
Wonder what his other name is.
Double amputee....heh heh That’s what you get for playing with bombs. Guess he figured he’d better use the one he managed to build without blowing off yet another limb.
Reads like he’s dyslexic.
Alleged device?
The WSJ has no soul.
The terrorist also has no sole.
These double-amputee jokes are really hitting below the belt.
And the state media will connect him to the tea party in 1,2,3...
Roosevelt—let me guess—black converted to islam in jail.
Just a guess.
“a bag of small explosives...shotgun shells...bullets, glue, lug nuts, pens and a ruler”
Are they sure it was a bomb? I’ve got most of that stuff in my pockets right now.
**And the state media will connect him to the tea party in 1,2,3...**
And I’ll as quickly connect him to the HOLY mooslim site of .... Riker’s Island
When I lived in uptown NYC, a few years ago, I used to go to that station all the time to take the train upstate.
This poor guy can never go out on a limb.....
That’s my first guess too. We’ll see.
When asked why he wanted to kill people, he said, “I don’t know, I’m stumped.”
Hey, quit pulling my leg! ;)
Anybody find out yet who this guy was?
Black muzzie? What?
