Explosions rock DC businesses as suspects remain on the loose: police

Police in Washington, D.C., are seeking the public's help locating the suspects behind attacks against a bank, a retail outlet and grocery store damaged with explosive devices within 15 minutes early Sunday morning.

Three stores in northeast D.C. reported damage, according to a statement from the Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Investigations Division and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Washington Field Division.

The first explosive went off at about 4:30 a.m. near Washington Place outside an ATM at a Truist bank before the suspect drove off, according to authorities. Another device reportedly exploded outside a Nike store on H Street, north of Capitol Hill, just six minutes after the first blast before the suspect drove away. A suspect then allegedly tossed a Molotov cocktail at a Safeway on 40th Street at around 4:45 a.m. before speeding off, police said.

Because all three establishments were closed at the time, nobody was injured, but each reported damage to their buildings, including shattered windows.

I left yesterday and have the receipts to prove it.

But seriously, I saw cameras everywhere around the Mall and blocks away. These locales that were bombed have cameras, there’s ATMs nearby. They know something…cops of every conceivable department were everywhere, FBI police, USSS police, metro police,park rangers, Smithsonian police, plain old “Federal” police on their vests…

And they are preparing for the 4th, so police presence was probably even more stringent that usual.

I saw your pics. No receipts needed, clearly you're beyond suspicion, Mike. Wink

They never identified the Jan 6 bomber. Introspection is not the Governments strong point
