Explosive devices at that location of the second explosion. i repeatedly asked whether this person was in custody, i could not get further answers. but i did get from this source a clear indication that the authorities believe they have identified this individual and that that is now the focus of the investigation. i was told to expect more information to be released publicly later today, but i can tell you, wolf, from both of these sources a significant shift. last night they were saying that t...

Have in this investigation, which is the bombs themselves. apparently two very similar if not twin bombs placed in black nylon bags that they are recreating as much as they can. at quantico. the fbi lab. it is how, who did this and why that they really do not have any leads on. you are looking at forensic evidence, it will be very important when they catch this person. but in terms of trying to find that person, i think it will be more difficult as they recreate the bombs. they will have to figu...

You remember the saudi suspect kind of washed out. so the perpetrators are still out there, and every day that passes, the case becomes a little bit colder and more difficult to piece together. but ill remind your viewers, though, the 93 world trade center center bombing case was masterfully put together by the fbi and the u.s. attorneys office where they pieced together this forensics from the bombing device at the world trade center and were able to attribute that back to the terrorists, that ...

The media, as well. >> fran, last night we urged caution about authorities talking to a saudi national who was wounded in a blast. authorities are now saying that person had nothing to do with it. that he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. do you have any sense of what kind of leads they have tonight, where this investigation stands? >> you know, anderson. federal law enforcement officials have been saying that theyre going to talk to a lot of people. we shouldnt put too much weight as we...

They have to look at this device, they have to look at how it is built, they have to look at how devices over in the middle east were built and have been utilized. and pressure cooker bombs have been used in the middle east,@% especially pakistan. they know that. but they also, as i said, its a very common bomb, if you will. so they have to look at everything. as one person said to me, what was the message of the bomber? what were they trying to say? its very hard to rule out for anybody at this...

Find additional information about that. but that is part of the forensics and physical evidence, but im told from the video analysis that they now have what they believe to be clear video image of a suspect approaching the site, placing a package and leaving the site and placing a package that matches the description of what they have been looking for, the size of the package, the black bag and like and they have those images now being analyzed and to such detail i am told that they believe they...

Yesterdays terrorist attack. the fbi has made some progress on that front, but as far as suspects, let alone arrests, nothing. they have a lot of information to sort through and analyze, and that, obviously, is going to take time. joining me now is cnn contributor secretary for homeland security julieann kyle, and a former fbi director, tom fuentes. julie ann, weve been showing this picture of a pressure cooker device in a bag. what do you make of where this investigation stands? >> its going to...

Dprept sto from the department store, they clearly identified a suspect, a single suspect and an arrest has been made. a briefing scheduled for later this evening, obviously. >> so lets reset chronologically. do we know what point they wound up identifying somebody, do we know a time window? >> i can tell you i was on just before 10:00 last night with anderson cooper and an hour or so before that i talked to a boston source who said were stymied at the moment. were doing a great job with the for...

Is the lead organization in charge of this investigation. but clearly there is some confusion amongst some of these sources about whats going on, even though the governor seemed to suggest that there wasnt. >> i think in the sense of cooperating with the investigation, sharing information, making sure if one agency comes into possession of some information, a photograph, maybe forensics, theres no question at all theres been very good cooperation. youve got federal officials, state officials and...
