"The same person?" Does that mean they have a lead?SCHERTZ, Tex. — The latest in a wave of bombings rattling Central Texas brought a widening investigation to this city outside San Antonio on Tuesday, after an explosion at a FedEx facility signaled that whoever was responsible for the attacks had offered police potentially critical new clues while again shifting tactics.

The same person who shipped that explosive also sent another package that was intercepted before delivery and was turned over to the FBI, according to FedEx. Federal officials confirmed that package also contained an explosive device.

The bomb in Schertz exploded just after midnight while it traveled on an automated conveyor belt at a FedEx center about an hour south of Austin, the city that has been the focus of the blasts. One employee at the center said it caused ringing in her ears, but no one else was wounded, police said.

Ah. They think.FedEx also said Tuesday that by using the delivery service, the person who shipped the packages left “extensive evidence,” which the company turned over to investigators. [...] "We have provided law enforcement responsible for this investigation extensive evidence related to these packages and the individual that shipped them collected from our advanced technology security systems.”
[...]
The package was en route to Austin, according to police, and officials said they think it was the work of the same person or people responsible for the four earlier explosions in the Texas capital.
Or maybe just other people.Police have described the unknown attacker as a “serial bomber” who has been showing increasing sophistication and skill. The two explosions on Sunday and early Tuesday also suggested a worrisome — and unusual — willingness to change gears.
Seems like somebody's out to ruin FedEx. Should we be looking at disgruntled FedEx employees?Investigators on Tuesday also searched a FedEx facility in Austin — where the package that detonated in Schertz likely would have been sent next — looking for other package bombs there, according to one person familiar with the investigation.
What? No thoughts and prayers? He finally rouses himself to comment, and he makes no remarks about the horror and the cowardliness of this awful person.President Trump said Tuesday that the federal government is working “hand in hand” with local authorities to “get to the bottom” of the bombings in Austin and find those responsible.
Austin seems to be getting just a tiny taste of what Middle Easterners live with every day of their lives. It's got to be harrowing.
