Explosion in Elizabeth early this morning 9/19

Wtf

Described as an IED, apparently exploded by accident as the robot was cutting the device.

I think trash receptacles should be removed from train stations for the week that the UN meeting is happening in NYC.



Per CBS News: Suspect arrested after shoot out in Linden, NJ.

Pretty quick police work.


Yikes. Quick police work indeed. Trains are a mess on lines going through Elizabeth today.


Apparently the quick police/FBI work was greatly aided by the actions of local Muslim leaders who sent a letter out to over a hundred groups statewide asking for assistance in locating the individual. (According to state senator Ray Lesniak's office.)

Job well done, all!

cut and pasted from my email

from Lesniak

New Jersey rallied to help find the bombing suspect
from Elizabeth. We received tips from many sources.

Congratulations to
Linden's finest.

The Muslim leadership emailed this message to 120
groups:

"If any member of the Muslim commuity has any information
regarding this person, it is our duty and obligation to assist law enforcement
agencies in their investigation of the recent bombings in New York
City."

We even received a tip from a prison inmate familiar with Ahmad
Khan Ramani.

New Jerseyians work together as one
