Bomb Scare in New York's Times Square May 2nd 2010

Just when you thought it was safe to go out side.

My wife her daughters and one of her grandchildren were in sitting in Times Square having tea before the incident. They left the area before the official evacuation. She called me at 23:08 to let me know they were ok. I was sleeping at the time. She thought that I might be watching the local news. When I turned it on there was nothing about NYC and a Bomb Scare. The local stations in my market are really good at infotainment not news. It seems someone parked a Nissan Pathfinder erratically on the street. The driver left the vehicle with the engine running, the fourways flashing and an amature bomb in the back. It didn't explode but sure did cause a lot a trouble. The result was the disruption of normal activity in Times Square. I'm sure glad that was all that happened.
