On Saturday the 17th of August, an explosion went off in a Manhattan neighborhood in the evening. Thankfully the explosion didn't cause any fatalities, but 29 citizens were injured. New York police officers are currently searching for the culprit. On a surveillance video taken on the night of the explosion, a man, possibly a suspect, is seen carrying a duffel bag. the same man was seen near where the police discovered a second suspicious device.
While it is very fortunate that nobody was killed in this bombing, it is very alarming that this occurred only a few days after the 15th anniversary of the September 11th attacks. While this recent attack can't exactly be compared to 9/11, it is still very frightening to see just how many people want to cause harm in the world. No matter the scale of victims, there will always be an underlining them of hatred in these attacks.

I completely agree with you on how scary it is especially how it follows the 9/11 15th anniversary. Hopefully they find out who did it and put higher protection against future attacks.
ReplyDeleteVery scary for us Americans. Everyone should be able to wake up and not have to worry about terrorist attacks like this.
