It comes just hours after an explosive device was accident squad robot just blocks from here. The blast even sent investigators ducking for cover. Officials say there were five devices inside the backpack. One of which was described as a pipe with wires coming out of it. Only one of the devices exploded. I dont have the expertise to determine the blast function of that, but based on the loudness, i think people could have been severely hurt or injured. The mayor of elizabeth says in a trash can by two people sometime after 8 00 last night. They found it. And they walked it around the corner, thinking there was something of value in it. When they realized it was too heavy and emptied it out thats when they left the area and went to police headquarters.

Were not going to know until the state police have an opportunity to examine the materials, and compare it to and or chelsea, new york. That will remain under investigation at this time.

Everybody is okay this morning. Investigators found a second bomb four blocks from the scene and that one did not go off. Anna werner is near the scene in chelsea where on saturday the streets were busy with both locals and tourists. Good morning, gayle. As you can see, now, much of this manhattan neighborhood, the chelsea neighborhood, is still shut down. That video that youve been hearing about, basically what the police are saying is that that Surveillance Video shows that suspect at both locations here in the chelsea neighborhood here on 23rd street, four blocks up, also on 27th street, where the Pressure Cooker device was found that did not detonate. The video was from saturday night. Pressure cooker bomb fild with shrapnel here on 23rd street exploded. Surveillance footage shows the bomb shattering the doors of a new york city fitness center.

Units saying explosion from a garbage pail. Police used bomb sniffing dogs to comb the neighborhood following the saturday night explosion. 29 people were injured and taken to the hospital. Hours after the blast police discovered a similar, undetonated device four blocks away. Right over here. Jane schreibman said she spotted the second bomb on the street near her chelsea apartment. Cbs news could not independently verify her accou it was such a weird looking thing. Its a Pressure Cooker with wires coming out. Earlier on saturday a pipe bomb exploded along the course of a Marine Charity run in seaside park, new jersey. None of the 5,000 participants were injured. Investigators say the bombs in new york and new jersey share similar characteristics, and they now believe the incidents are linked. Were coordinating resources between new york and new jersey to see if theres anything we the new york city bombing, the nypd and the fbi are still coming through the neighborhoods, and reviewing Surveillance Footage from nearby businesses. Heres what we know. It was intentional. It was a violent act. Was certainly a criminal act. It was a bombing. To give you a sense, elizabeth, new jersey, is about 13 miles from the neighborhood here of chelsea. Charlie . Thanks, anna. Fran townsend is a former homeland securdv president george w. Bush. She is now a cbs News Senior National security analyst. Good morning. Good morning. There are two other people seen on the surveillance tape. Do we know anything about them . We dont. We know that there are Law Enforcement sources say that theyre trying to identify them. I suspect, charlie, that thats part of the reason theyve put out the alert about rahami. They have identified him or he may be the key to understanding or identifying who the other two are. How do you think they were able to identify him so quickly video . Looking at him, if you dont know him thats right. Theres a bunch of typical investigative steps. One they would have run license plates of all of the cars in the neighborhood that may have been picked up on surveillance tapes and they have released the car they think hes driving. I suspect thats part of it. They also would have dusted for fingerprints, the second unexploded bomb and that also might doctor have led to leads. Does he look like a lone wolf or part of a larger terror cell . The fact tt others on the surveillance tape seems to suggest he at least had help. Investigators are now concerned he may be part of a cell. Does the choice of targets surprise you . Because that wasnt necessarily a crowded area. And normally, the these type of attacks, theyre they want to blow themselves up as well. Thats exactly right, gayle. So the interesting thing is remember the one other attempt in times square where the detonation device didnt work, its entirely possible that what they what rahami did was we dont know whether it detonated successfully. We know one of them didnt detonate. So this could have been a dry run to have placed these types of devices in a larger, more populated area. As has been said no known connection yet to isis. Thats right. Not yet. And we dont know. We know investigators searched his home earlier at his apartment earlier today. Thats certainly one of the things that were looking for. Did they find a computer . Did they find literature that might have suggested whether he was connected to isis or he was selfradicalized. You think well see other bombs . Concern, right . If youve got rahami out there and two others who helped them, theres a large number of devices now they had. Do you have a bombmaker out there capable, and do they have other devices . Fran townsend, thank you so much. Thank you. Isis has used the word soldier to describe a man accused of attacking shoppers at a minnesota mall. Cbs news has identified the suspect as dahir adan. Law enforcement has not released his name. Nine people were stabbed at the Shopping Center on saturday night. Happened shortly after the explosion in new york city. Dean reynolds is at the Crossroads Center mall in saint cloud northwest of minneapolis. Dean, good morning. Good morning. The victims of saturdays attack range in age from 15 to 53. And all of them survived. Saint clouds mayor says the man involved, identified as a naturalized american citizen from somalia, is now dead, because an offduty Police Officer just happened to be in we are currently investigating this as a potential act of terrorism. Police say saturdays attack began just after 8 00 p. M. When dahir adan, a College Student in his 20s, entered a sears store on the malls southeast corner. A Law Enforcement source tells cbs news he asked people if they were muslim, and used a knife to stab those who said they were not. Shot and killed by Jason Falconer an offduty minnesota policeman. His heroic actions are exemplary, of having witnessed what he did, not only did he fire, suspect went down, he came back up on three different occasions. This guy comes out, hes africanamerican, wearing a blue or black security outfit. Ryan had just entered the mall when he was attacked. I knew he was going to strike me. It. He just did one fast motion to the side of my head. He fell to the ground and watched as adan continued through the mall. There was no like official lockdown or alarm going off. There was no mall security anywhere. Minnesota is home to the largest somaliamerican population in the u. S. One which has been heavily scrutinized for its threat of domestic radicalization. Adan had lived in the United States for a number of years. On sunday, somali and Muslim Community leaders gathered to any evil is evil. It does not mean that it is one person does anything is representative of everyone in our community. That is very wrong. The fbi said its not clear yet whether isis actually planned this attack, or merely inspired it. Dahir adan had three previous runins with minnesota Law Enforcement. But most of them involved traffic violations. Gayle . Thank you very much, are condemning the attacks in new york and new jersey, and minnesota.

At the same time, both she and trump are trying to show that theyre best equipped to handle the kinds of dangers to the homeland we saw this we better get very tough, folks. We better get very, very tough. Trump sought to project strength after the bombing. Clinton, steadiness. Its always wiser to wait until you have information before making conclusions. Their vastly different stiles are reflected in the latest cbs news battleground tracker. Trump is seen as far more likely be better at handling the daytoday job of being president. Voters are so divided at 83 of republicans believe the countryf clinton is president. Even more democrats believe that about trump. This weekend clintons running mate said hes one of them.
