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.

The screen grab is real enough. The posting is bull.
Curious as to when this blog was started and by who.
I and three other very long time FREEPERS actually LIVE in the town where the kids WERE murdered and NOT by the government ! So I suggest that you just shut up and go away. You and the few other conspiracy idiots, who keep claiming all kinds of crapola about Sandy Hook and/or using the said name as some kind of meme, should all come up here and we'll even show you where the other infamous" murder, THE WOODCHIPPER MURDER" took place.
But thanks for showing all of cyber space just how stupid YOU are.
OTOH, the placement of these two bombs, in NYC, makes little sense.
I disagree. To be effective the terror the attack needs to be more widely covered my the media and have a bigger impact on the country IMO. The attacks the last 18 hours are a blip.
DeBlasio. Nope. No evidence of terrorism in this case. Halloween prank. That’s the ticket.
Beats me. Someone posted a link to it this afternoon and I knew I should grab it.
Yeah that’s what I’m thinking as well, as usual some lib has to hog the attention to make a political statement about that something that doesn’t exist. If it isn’t fake racism then it’s fake homophobia, and in New York city? One of the most liberal cities on earth? A city that last year honored Ethel Rosenberg for her bravery? You ever see that? The city council actually honored soviet spy Ethel Rosenberg for bravery, that’s how left that city is. I wonder if the city council ever did that for a cop or firemen killed in the line of duty.

Am I allowed to say I’m not a NYer if I live on Staten Island? Guess not.
It is a nauseatingly liberal infested city.
The only time I enjoyed it was getting off work at Rock plaza at 3am and walking to the ferry with relative quiet, me, the cops and the taxis and a beer in a bag. Admiring the beautiful buildings in peace.
And Phantom of the Opera.
You see that Christmas Tree more than 10 years in a row at rock plaza, it gets old.
Seems funny they’d choose “Chelsea” for this, doesn’t it?
“But I just heard on CNN that there ARE similarities between the two events. No details were forthcoming.”
A New Jersey mosque being my scientific wild-ass guess.
I see what you did there...
Ridicule, now hostility, add a twist of guilt to manipulate. Seriously. You need to get some self control. The sandy hook crises was used as a means to further fun control. This is not referencing whether or not it happened. But, the left never lets a crises go to waste.
Just leave Sandy Hook alone, don't mention it ever again, in a post, and IF you want to talk about liberals spews re "gun control", use something other than Sandy Hook!
Got that?
Go back and read and learn. It is u who went flew off the handle
There will be more as long as there are followers of the ideology of death and destruction in this country.
They should be all kicked out.
I grew up there in Queens and finally moved out around 9 years ago to Riverhead Long Island as faaaar away as I could get without actually leaving NY so I am close to the relatives. I could not stand that city, I really believe if I stayed a year or two more I would have ended up in jail. The final straw was when I was having dinner with my parents in a Japanese restaurant in Astoria and we were talking about the CLintons, and some lib next to us didn’t like the disparaging of his heroes, and if you can believe it he stood up and said something to the effect of Bush killing retarded people and PURPOSELY knocked over my drink and pushed me. The only reason I didn’t beat him into a pulp is because my 70 year old mother ( 70 at the time) would have had a heart attack as she has a nervous condition, she was literally having a panic attack, and we just got out of there ASAP but as I was leaving I walked up to this guy (while mom was outside) and told him “I’m going to be looking for you, pray to God I do not” and he made this “wooo” sound acting like he was scared, and he should have been because everyday for the next month I went to that restaurant looking for him. Never found him though thank God, because absolutely I would ended up on Rikers Island. I had to leave. I hate that city with an absolute passion like you can’t believe. I’ve been back a few times and I literally get sick to my stomach there, my stomach goes in knots and is painful. It’s like poison that place.
If u want to force me to not say something, you will have use more than hiding behind a screen. I am my own person. I will say what I want. U Got that?!
LOL...pull the other one.
You just ran smack dab into a stone wall. I suggest that you think twice before attempting to take me on, next time.
