7th ave and 92nd street, if it existed, would be inside Central Park.
Homeland Security has announced that there is no evidence of terrorism.
Stay safe, and thank you for the heads up. Correct me if I’m wrong, but is this not a majority Jewish area? And, is this the SAME borough that was vandalized on the anniversary of Kristallnacht?
Any word on the streets as far as who? I have to admit the poster warning from Al Qaeda, the fact that Israel has dealt with exploding buses for a LONG time now, Egypt shoots a missile into Israel today, the Muslim Brotherhood is LITERALLY IN the White House, and now this - on the *eve* of Passover? I’m not likely to believe any claims that this was NOT some sort of terrorist attack, frankly.
The bus ran over a mattress. See post #9.
Oops!!! Never mind!! I know! They’re talking about Brooklyn. Sorry, been a loooong day.
Odd, nothing about this is coming up on Twitter at all.
Has Mayor Turdbloom blamed the Tea Party yet as he did with the Times Square bombing?
UPDATE: A bus and six cars were torched in the blaze.
The New York Daily News reported:
A twin-size mattress that ended up under an MTA bus is being blamed for sparking a bizarre Thursday night Brooklyn blaze that left the bus and six parked cars torched.
The S53 bus from Staten Island ran over the mattress just after 11 p.m. and dragged it across the Verrazano Bridge, a police source said.
Metal springs in the mattress apparently punctured the bus’ gas tank, setting the coach ablaze moments after the driver pulled over in Bay Ridge and evacuated passengers.
Witnesses said gas from the bus spilled into the gutter on Dahlgren Place near 92nd St., triggering a fiery stream underneath a half-dozen cars that rapidly went up in flames.
No one was injured.

I'm thinking it was an Arab spring that caused the explosion.
Muslims celebrating Good Friday early.
Update: No one was injured.
Nothing to see here. Nothing to see at at news.google.com either. Not a word about it. If there ever were any stories about it, they've been scrubbed.
Now everyone knows why the matress label says it’s against federal law to remove it. The tag is a grenade pin, people.
Who the hell writes this stuff???

Mattress springs punctured an MTA Bus Gas Tank?
Not buying.
