People have been wondering the details surrounding the tragic Nashville bomber incident and new intel emerges in the case.
Nashville Info Comes to Light
The man who is responsible for the bombing sent packages that “espoused his viewpoints” to individuals located across the country just days before he blew himself up.
Anthony Warner blew up his RV in a downtown Nashville street where he was inside. The incident took place on Christmas morning.
While three people were injured, luckily no one else died in the explosive situation. An alarm urging people to back away came from the RV just shortly before the blast occurred which devastated several blocks in the Nashville area.
No Motive Uncovered
Authorities are still searching for a motive but continue to come up empty-handed. They are unsure why the bombing occurred or the purpose for such.
The FBI is currently underway in an investigation of the mailed materials.
“We’re aware the suspect sent materials which espoused his viewpoints to several acquaintances throughout the country,” FBI Special Agent Jason Pack said in a statement to The Tennessean.
The FBI statement also told people that if they receive a package or any type of material from Warner to contact the FBI at 800-CALL-FBI.
The Nashville bomber sent out packages to friends just days before the blast.
The identity of the bomber was uncovered through people calling in tips and through DNA evidence.
Police Didn’t Act on Info
Warner’s girlfriend alerted police in August 2019 that he “was building bombs in the RV trailer at his residence.” But officers did not respond to this.
MSN News reports:
Metro Nashville Police Chief John Drake said officers didn’t have enough evidence to seek a search warrant of Warner’s home or RV, and Warner’s attorney told officers they would not be able to search the property.
Police responding to reports of shots fired near the RV on Christmas morning heard recorded warnings coming from the van and evacuated dozens of people from the area. More than 40 buildings were damaged in the explosion, and 10 remain classified as unsafe for use or occupancy. At least two buildings will need to be demolished, Metro Nashville officials said.
