Authorities are acknowledging a serial bomber in/around the Austin Texas area is shifting techniques. The first four bombs were packages that detonated when opened or moved. A few days later another package bomb was detonated by an alarmingly well designed ‘tripwire’. Today, a package bomb exploded at a Fed-X facility during shipment.
Police believe somebody
sent the package to Schertz from a FedEx Office store in the Austin suburb of Sunset Valley. This could lead to a break in the case because the office store has no drop-off option; meaning the person who mailed the package needed to go inside, and thus could be on the store’s surveillance video.
The FBI has sent 350 special agents
to Austin as well as extra bomb squads.
