A suspicious vehicle abandoned in Times Square that appeared to contain materials that could be used to make an improvised bomb triggered a massive police response and a partial evacuation of New York City's theater district.

Police activity was going on for more than three hours, and investigators said they were taking the situation seriously.

According to mutiple sources, however, the situation was still fluid.

Conflicting reports were coming in to police officials as to what exactly was suspicious about the vehicle and its contents.

Some reports noted the vehicle was on fire. Others noted it contained metal boxes.

According to one account, the vehicle was driven into Times Square, was left with its flashers on and then the driver left.

After the fire in the vehicle was reported at around 6:35 p.m., police closed off an area in Times Square near 44th Street and 7th Avenue.

I've always wondered why more things like this don't happen.

You know you're a real piece of work when you build a bomb, try to set it off and it fails. I mean that's just fucking stupid right there. Because whatever your goal was, you failed to reach it and you'll still be a wanted man and probably sent to Gitmo or supermax prison.

nah if you're an American you get due process and rights and such

I think the reason Gitmo has stayed open for so long is that the prisoners aren't Americans or anything really. They just identify with their terrorist organization.

My guess is tea partyers etc. Its a pretty amatuer effort , the guy ran from the car so was probably not a religious nut. Well maybe not a tea partyer, but someone that aint happy with Obama etc. Crazy nutjob of course.

Why would Tea Party folks want to blow anything up? There has been no violence at any of their rallys.
I am not going to try and guess who did this... I'll wait until the authorities have investigated.

Maybe it was someone who loves the government so much that they set that up in hopes of it being pinned on Tea Party folks?

Or maybe tea party folks set it so people would think someone had set them up and thus the tea party movement would gain more sympathy?
