A 911 caller warned of further explosions right after the blast that rocked Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood and injured 29 people, The Post has learned.
“I’m looking at the explosion down the block. There will be more,” the unidentified male said, claiming to be standing at 23rd Street and Seventh Avenue in the aftermath of the terrifying incident, according to law-enforcement sources Sunday.
The bomb appears to have been a pressure-cooker device, sources said.
Investigators have obtained surveillance video of a person placing another unexploded device — a pressure-cooker bomb — that was later removed from 27th Street, the sources added.
That device was found by an older woman who was phoned by a friend checking on her in the wake of the explosion around 8:30 p.m. Saturday, sources said.
The woman went outside her home and noticed the bomb inside a plastic bag, then called 911.
State police secured the device, and it was taken to the NYPD firing range at Rodman’s Neck for investigation, sources said.
Initial analysis of the garbage Dumpster that was ripped apart in the blast suggests whatever blew up was placed outside the bin, sources said.
The blast pattern shows the metal is bent inward, and an explosion inside the Dumpster would have bent the metal outward, sources said.
Meanwhile, sources said investigators were “vetting” an online Tumblr page on which someone claiming to be “the NY Bomber” took responsibility for the blast and said the motive was a response to anti-gay “violence and oppression.”
“I did it because I cannot stand society. I cannot live in a world where homosexuals like myself as well as the rest of the LGBTQ+ community are looked down upon by society,” one post says.

Were you a bully or perhaps bullied in your life? Because, something is seriously wrong with your method of communication. I have a feeling this is not the first time you’ve heard this. “I suggest you think twice before attempting to take me on.” Is that how you perceive dialogue - taking someone on? your continual name calling is rude and nothing short of being a bully. Perhaps you can push people around in your circle, but here on Free Republic, at least the ones I have spent time with and Freep with are more civil. This will be the last you will hear from me. If there was a ‘block’ button, I’d utilize it. You do nothing to enhance or help a discussion. You only bring negativity and just bad vibes. Oh, In case you have forgotten, I am not the only one who feels this way: ——————————————————————————— “I’m not a “troll”, but you sure are a thin skinned, reading comprehension impaired, barely literate, nasty poster! Internet Troll: In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroÊŠl/, /ˈtrÉ’l/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion, often for their own amusement. that would be you nopardons. you hijacked this thread and turned it into a pointless fight and I have seen you do it before. You are a troll.”
And FYI....pulling up and posting old posts of mine, or anyone's, isn't approved of here and shows just how pathetic you are.
What a truly sad little person you are, who can't accept the fact that your original post was benighted and blemished.
How long are you planning on continuing your irrational, off topic posts; diddums?
