Times Square Bombing of Recruiter Station

In the morning's early hours, a small explosion blew out the front windows and door along with damaging the metal framework of the Times Square military recruiting station. While Manhattan's prime recruiting station is no stranger to peculiar events and protests, this time the scene is still under investigation by the FBI and local authorities. Despite Times Square's notoriety as the epicenter of the city that never sleeps, witnesses were limited to hotel guests that heard a loud boom and those that believe a bicyclist threw a device. Authorities, who described the explosive source during a press conference, believe the bombing may be related to other bombings also carried out by a bicyclist over the past several years. As of yet, no groups have claimed responsibility for the incident.
