Скачать или смотреть Authorities investigate suspicious backpack in connection with NYC bombing

하루에 세곳…대선 50일 앞둔 미국서 다시 테러위험 부각
There are some new developments in the three terror attacks that hit the U.S. over the weekend.
The New York governor has called the latest blast an obvious act of terrorism,... while authorities continue the search for suspects and their motives.
Lee Ji-won gives us the updates.
A suspicious backpack with "multiple improvised explosive devices" was found near a train station in New Jersey on Sunday night.
One of the devices went off on Monday morning as the bomb squad was attempting to disarm it, but no one was hurt.
Police are investigating to see if it is linked to the bomb that exploded in the Manhattan neighborhood of Chelsea in New York on Saturday, injuring 29 people.

Five people were taken into FBI custody on Sunday night in connection with the blast.
According to ABC News, the FBI's New York field office conducted a traffic stop of a vehicle of interest in the investigation.
As many as five people were taken in custody,... but no one has been charged with any crime and the investigation will continue.
Authorities said the blast was caused by an explosive device in or near what appeared to be a dumpster or garbage container.
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said the explosion was an "intentional act," but insisted there was no specific threat against New York City from any terror organization.

"We know from everything we've seen so far that this was an intentional act. I want to reaffirm I said last night but again we do not know the motivation. We do not know the nature of it. That's what we have to do more work."

Shortly after the blast, police sniffer dogs uncovered a second bomb nearby,... a pressure cooker with wiring attached.
Pressure cookers were used in the two bombs detonated at the Boston Marathon in 2013.

The incident in New York was one of three different acts of terror that rocked the country in a single day... and came less than a week after the U.S. observed the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.
About eleven hours before the bombing in New York, a pipe bomb blew up inside a garbage can in Seaside Park New Jersey, shortly before a scheduled charity race.
Fortunately, no one was wounded.
In another incident, a Somali attacker, who made references to Allah, stabbed and wounded nine people at mall in Minnesota.
He was later shot dead by an off-duty police officer.
The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the Minnesota attack, but made no similar claims about the incidents in New York and New Jersey.
