Police in Austin say "similarities" between two deadly package explosions in Texas' capital city this month lead them to believe the incidents are related. The latest incident, reported Monday morning, killed a 17-year-old boy and wounded a woman, Austin police chief Brian Manley said.

The boy died at the scene and the woman in her 40s was taken to the hospital with potentially life threatening injuries after the explosion at the East Austin home before 7 a.m. In an earlier incident March 2, Anthony Stephan House, 39, was killed when a package exploded at his northeast Austin home, CBS affiliate KEYE reports.

Police also responded around 11:50 a.m. Monday to the report of an explosion in southeast Austin in which a woman was badly injured, according to police and the Associated Press, but more information wasn't immediately available and it wasn't clear whether it was related to the two package explosions...

Victims are African American.

Look for them to find a "right winger" literally out of central casting...

I’m reminded of the Mormon in Salt Lake City(?) who killed a guy who was about to expose him. He then killed a woman at random (again with a package bomb) to muddy the waters as to motive. Thirdly, one of his bombs accidentally exploded in his vehicle, injuring him.

He was manufacturing “ancient documents from Joseph Smith”.

With the FBI on the case it’s a certainty that ‘Trump did it’ with the collusion of the Russians.

I will have to wait for the expert analysis from David Hogg and CNN.

Recall that the kook who flew his plane into the IRS building in Austin was a left-wing nutjob.

Of course, the Russians are involved in EVERYTHING.

Well, except for Uranium One and Hillary Clinton.

I demand they ban assault packages, and move the minimum age to mail something to 21.

A teenager was killed and at least two women were seriously
hurt after a pair of explosions rocked homes in Austin on Monday
-- just two weeks after a separate blast which authorities said is
linked to at least one of Monday's incidents.

Austin package explosions leave teen dead, women hurt after three blasts in 2 weeks

What began as an effort to promote regional musicians to the rest of the country’s entertainment press (SXSW) has now become a globalist conference that runs for weeks.

Barack Obama attended it as POTU (where oh where did his speaking fee go).

Michelle has gone.

Ahnold is there to make the case against guns.

Londonistahn’s mayor is there this week.

Where are the Occutards? Do they have an encampment in town this month?

The unsub is a white male in his early 20’s with psychosomatic disorders caused by a megalomaniacal feeling of superiority due to Trump being POTUS. (I got that off of Criminal Minds)
