UPDATE:
Folks, the only reason I post this is to illustrate to you the absurdity of this story. Now, there are reports of a bomb squad detonating a suspicious package outside the AG's office. The story still does not say definitively whether there was any explosive other than the one LEOs detonated. The AG is requesting the FBI, ATF, and other federal agencies assistance. I am scratching my head and wondering for what. I still think this is some justification for shiny vehicles, robots, drones, overreach, etc. Below is the story.
ALEA, FBI, Alabama AG ask for public's help in investigation of explosive device detonated in Montgomery
State and federal law enforcement are asking for the public's help after an explosive device was detonated outside of the Alabama Attorney General's Office in Montgomery over the weekend.
At 3:42 a.m. on Saturday, an explosive device was discharged near the intersection of Washington Avenue and South Bainbridge Street outside of the AG's office in downtown Montgomery.
The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA), along with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Mobile and the Alabama Attorney General's Office, is requesting the public's assistance in identifying persons of interest related to the incident.
Anyone with information is asked to please submit tips at 1-800-CALL-FBI and upload any digital files online here.
Special agents with ALEA's State Bureau of Investigation received notification of a suspicious package at approximately 8:19 a.m. on Monday, Feb. 26, and immediately responded to the scene and deemed the area safe. The suspicious package was confirmed as the device which was detonated on Saturday.
Troopers assigned to ALEA's Protective Services Division and Special Agents assigned to ALEA's Hazardous Device Unit (HDU), along with Agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and Officers from the Montgomery Police Department, also responded to the scene to assist. No injuries or damage to nearby buildings were reported.
According to ALEA, no further details are available as the investigation is ongoing.

ExplosiveThis is the original article: device detonates outside Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall’s Office.
The article I found states "there were no injuries and there wasn't any property damage".
An investigation has been launched after an explosive device was set off early Saturday morning outside the office of Alabama Republican Attorney General Steve Marshall.
In a statement on Monday, Marshall said that there were no injuries from the explosion and that Alabama authorities would be further investigating the incident. No possible motives have been given and no suspects have been identified by state authorities.
“In the early hours of Saturday, February 24, an explosive device was detonated outside of the Alabama Attorney General’s Office building in Montgomery,” Marshall said in a statement. “Thankfully, no staff or personnel were injured by the explosion. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency will be leading the investigation, and we are urging anyone with information to contact them immediately.”
The FBI was unavailable for comment about training aids.
ReplyDeleteThe AG in question spoke last night to a group of Alabama Republican Women (I was one of about 12 males present. Let the hoorawing begin.) and there wasn't any visible security. The AG was at complete ease, but I would imagine as Alabama's "top-cop" he was probably packing a big 'ol hog leg. He brought up the subject of the "explosion" and made a joke about it and later said the "suspect(s)" had not been apprehended. I will say this. Once "someone" realized the publicity value of this story, it didn't take it long for it too spread. Now, it is everywhere, but it still is a "non-story" in my book. I believe the AG will run for governor before long. I like him and think he is the real deal. Of course, last night he was "preaching to the choir". He is like a rockstar to those conservative ladies.
DeleteSomeone needs to send them fanni willis' description.
ReplyDeleteWhy would you ask for assistance from the Feds? It was probably some fed lackey that planted the thing in the first place. Wake up people.
ReplyDeleteEverything is fake until proven otherwise.
ReplyDeleteInside would have been better
ReplyDeleteAfter J6, they made sure their 'explosives' would have some sort of report.

Sounds like, "Oh, poor pitiful me, help me against the not-a-bomb (that I planted there myself) to give me publicity" .

Our government is so corrupt it will kill a half dozen of us to enact a law allowing them to kill millions.
Fuck these miscreants, lets start hanging the bastards!!!
Remember when Jessie The Body Ventura had a small explosion outside his headquarters right before the election for governor in MN? He ran with it.
ReplyDeleteIt was absolute bullshit but he went on to win. He was a Navy Seal, ya know.
And Chris Kyle kicked that liberal POS’s ass and he sued Chris’s estate and won, fuck him
DeleteAlabama's Reichstag Fire??
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure where this is headed. I don't think it is so big as to detract from something, but I do believe the political advisers said, "hey, hold on a minute. We can pick up some mileage with a little tweaking of this story".
Deletewas it an M80?
