Prosecutors said a woman was also arrested in connection with the attack. Lyon mayor and former interior minister Gerard Collomb said one of the suspects is an IT student who was arrested as he stepped off a bus. "It's a relief for all Lyon inhabitants.

Security camera footage of the incident showed the main suspect wheeling a bicycle to the scene before leaving a bag outside a branch of a popular bakery chain.The man was caught...

A man convicted of driving around Southern California with bombs he “designed and built to kill” in his car was sentenced on Monday to 19 years in state prison, prosecutors said. “There is no doubt that he had the intent by his possession of these weapons to commit as much mass destruction as he could,” Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer said at a news conference, describing 48-year-old Saleh Ali of Salinas as a “wannabe terrorist.” Before hearing his sentence, Ali insulted the judge and made an anti-Semitic remark about the prosecutor, NBC Los Angeles reports. “You’re a cockroach,” Ali...

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - A Canadian woman was arrested Tuesday at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport after making what she called a "stupid joke" about a bomb in a suitcase. Nathalie Tremblay and her boyfriend had boarded an Air Canada flight bound for Montreal when a flight attendant asked whose bag would not allow an overhead bin to close.

The attendant alerted the pilot, who ordered the plane to be evacuated, while the terminal was forced to close as a Broward Sheriff's Office...

The National Nuclear Security Administration has canceled its previous plan to refurbish a warhead for use on the Air Force’s future land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles as well as on the Navy’s submarine-launched ballistic missiles, according to a December 2018 NNSA report to Congress that Air Force Magazine viewed Jan. 29. “[NNSA] is no longer planning for an interoperable warhead program as previously conceived,” the report states. “NNSA has no plans to pursue a W78 life-extension program using the existing aeroshell.” Instead, NNSA will pursue a safer but slightly more expensive warhead for the future Ground-Based Strategic Deterrent, the W87-1, which...

A kids’ game that asked children to defuse a plastic, pretend bomb had parents exploding with anger — and now two major retailers are pulling the controversial toy. The game, called “Cut the Wire,” asks players to defuse a fake bomb before the timer runs out. Should a player cut the wrong wire with the toy wire cutter included in the game, the bomb sounds an alarm and lights up and vibrates to recreate an explosion simulation. The toy bomb is shaped like sticks of dynamite and the packaging is covered in flames to signify an explosion that has already...

A pipe bomb loaded with explosive black powder was hand-delivered to the suburban New York City home of billionaire financier George Soros by a would-be attacker, prompting the FBI to launch an investigation into who would want to harm the philanthropist and political activist, a law enforcement source told ABC News on Tuesday. The FBI photographed the device and then detonated it near Soros' home in Katonah, New York, and were analyzing fragments to determine why the bomb did not go off, the source said. The device was not delivered via U.S. Postal Service, a source familiar with the investigation...

Note by Yo-Yo: This article was written before the bomber was arrested. However, it is still a very insightful article. The explosive devices mailed to Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, Robert De Niro, Cory Booker, James Clapper and other public figures, as well as CNN, are indisputably a false-flag attack. It’s indisputable because the packages are labeled as coming from Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Democratic congresswoman from Florida and former DNC chairwoman. She can safely be ruled out as a suspect. Beyond that, little can responsibly be said about the would-be bomber’s identity or motives. But that hasn’t stopped...

#MeToo Redux (pronounced re-doo) So I got to thinking about all these purported mail bimbs and the left's attempt to pin it on right-wingnuts as opposed to it being a pathetic false-flag attempt to divert attention from the sinking blue wave. When I heard that De Niro's restaurant received the latest one, it dawned on me that many on the left are probably wondering, "hey, why didn't I get one!!! I'm just as progressive as Hillary or De Niro." Yep, the old hey, what about me? I'm just as deserving. So I can just imagine a second wave of self-mailed...
