Bomb explodes in Las Vegas...

[Little Raven]

Somehow, I don't think this is terrorism.

A backpack exploded in a parking garage attached to a Las Vegas hotel early Monday, killing a man who had picked it up and injuring another person, authorities said.

The man had removed the backpack from atop his car when it exploded shortly after 4 a.m. on the second floor of a parking behind the Luxor hotel-casino, said Officer Bill Cassell, a police spokesman.

The second person was taken to an area hospital.

Aerial video showed no apparent damage to the parking structure, where entrances were blocked while police, firefighters and federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agents investigated. No further information was immediately available.

Sounds a little too pin-point for a terrorist. I suspect our friends in Sin City are merely getting back in touch with their roots.

Maybe but a "backpack blast" near a "pyramid-shaped" hotel sounds so sexy!

It could be Marv(Sin City)-"The good old days,the bad days,and the all-for-nothing days!"

Thinking like that just emboldens the evildoers.

Continue to pick up backpacks laying on the ground, otherwise the terrorists win.

Couldn't be the Mob it was way to amaturish......or Vinny is getting sloppy.

 

[GenMarshall]

Perhaps this is a work of a lone wolf.

 

[Bozo Erectus]

I think it was planted by someone in the entertainment business. Many entertainers have bombed in Vegas.

 

[Babbler]

Probably just a lone nut.

 

[MobBoss]

Sounds like a job for CSI: Vegas. Go Grissom Go!

Wasn't there a Vegas CSI episode similar to this? I mean with a bookbag and everything.

Vegas is such a cool place, like a different world.

Alright that's it! Deport all Muslims now!

*Aide whispers in Stylesjl's ear*

Uh oh, I mean, eh, uh, um

So Muslims aren't the only terrorists? What a suprise!

Sorry couldn't resist

 

[Tee Kay]

Probably not terrorism in the "traditional" sense.

There was an episode where a car bomb exploded and killed an Air Marshal I believe. Turned out the bomb was meant to take out somebody else, but the timing mechanism failed. It's been a while, but I think that was the gist of the episode.
