Explosion in downtown Nashville, Vehicle explosion on Second Avenue was intentional, Metro police say Live coverage.
Well I certainly hope we get more info. That article says that a warning was coming FROM the RV that exploded (and the one video has it in its audio). That sounds really weird.
From a friend of a friend: The area the RV was parked is downtown, but not really the “historic” or “main” part. It’s old vintage buildings, but it isn’t Broadway with the bars and classic clubs, and it’s not the Ryman/Bridgestone Arena area. It’s mainly the Melting Pot, Coyote Ugly, Rodizio Grill, Hooters...modern restaurants...a parking garage. It is two blocks down from the courthouse, though.
Here’s a screenshot of the area on my phone’s map, with the explosion site circled. The courthouse is at the top, and the horizontal road at the very bottom is Broadway, which is the main drag of tourist stops and what not.
Lots of AT&T outages now due to the explosion. I wonder if that was the target? Also they keep mentioning an RV....has anyone seen any remains of an RV? You'd think there'd at least be a frame left.
One off-the-wall theory is that this was done by a 5G conspiracy theorist. As for the RV, it looked like a helluva blast. Thing was probably obliterated.
Best theory I've heard so far: "Which ever group of nincompoops you fear the most, that's who did it."
MNPD posts pic of the RV, which is about what you’d think it looked like. https://twitter.com/MNPDNashville/status/1342565893486899201?s=20
Inside job? This is the war on Christmas that what’shisname was warning us about for years. The dossier was on the president’s desk, he had time to stop this knowing now for MONTHS atheists planned on taking down Santa Claus and Jesus.
It is so weird and awful beyond comprehension. On Christmas Day you perform pre-warned, publicly addressed terrorism? Who? WHO are you trying to win over with this?
CBS News is reporting that officials found what appears to be human remains. Unidentified at this point.
Probably an overabundance of caution, but Cincy has blocked off roads because of a RV by the federal building there.
So the FBI/ATF raided the home of a guy named Anthony Quinn Warner, who had a similar RV parked at his house, and neighbors reported it’s not there anymore. Also, back in November Warner did a quitclaim deed on his property for $0.00 to a woman named Michelle Swing out in California, who was originally from Nashville. Just adding to the strange mystery for now.
Maybe she's his daughter and doesn't know it. Let's say he got diagnosed with something terminal, rigged up the RV bomb to go out with a bang, was kind enough to warn any potential bystanders and even leave his child a house. It'll do until the actual facts are revealed.
I just heard a report that the explosion was a suicide. I've been a vocal proponent of suicide (it's your life), but if this is the case, this guy was just being a dick-head, blowing himself up downtown and causing lots of damage and panic.
