edjr 5,538 Posted January 22, 2018 https://www.yahoo.com/news/2-ieds-explode-florida-mall-073521103.html Two improvised explosive devices detonated at a mall in central Florida on Sunday, authorities said. Police are still searching for a person of interest who was seen running from the building. No one was injured by the blasts around 5:30 p.m. at the Eagle Ridge Mall in Lake Wales, Florida, about 30 minutes east of Tampa, NBC News reported. The devices appeared to resemble pipe bombs; they were made of PVC piping that was wrapped in electrical tape. The explosions occurred in a service corridor near a JCPenney store, and the mall was evacuated as a safety precaution. K9 units searched the mall on Sunday evening and the FBI was notified. Was yesterday? Haven't heard about this yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,063 Posted January 22, 2018 Using PVC sounds stupid as well. Isn't the point of a pipe bomb to have shrapnel do most of the damage? What would PVC do in this case? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
