Just a terrible, terrible act. Were working together to conduct a thorough investigation to find out who is responsible at this time. Were out there conducting interviews and securing evidence. And were making sure that theres no stone left unturned. The start of the run had been delayed by registration issues so no one was near the trash can when the device exploded.
