A ‘local family’, plus NJ has several people who train special forces on how to spot IEDs, and how to track down the person who planted them.

That’s a dangerous state to plant bombs in.

Yep I know this area well, Toms River and Seaside Heights. Not far from Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (only tri-service base in the country). In addition the USCG Atlantic Strike Team is based there.

But the NJ State Police Bomb Unit is second to none and exactly who you'd want investigating this act of terrorism.
