An explosion rocked the US city of Nashville at 6:32am on Christmas morning, damaging dozens of buildings.
Police believe the blast was deliberate, and the FBI is now investigating.
Officers were responding to reports of gunshots being fired when they discovered a suspicious vehicle, an RV, parked in the downtown area.
“Whilst they responded, they encountered an RV that had a recording saying a potential bomb would detonate within 15 minutes,” Nashville Police Department Chief John Drake said.
“Upon hearing that, officers decided to evacuate the buildings nearby. They began knocking on doors, making announcements to get people safe.
“Shortly after that, the RV exploded.”
The bomb squad was on its way to the scene when the explosion happened.
One officer was knocked to the ground, three people ended up in hospital, though thankfully their injuries were not life-threatening.
“We do believe that the explosion was an intentional act,” said police spokesman e-threateningps://www.news.com.au/world/explosion-rocks-nashville-on-christmas-morning-police-believe-it-was-intentional/news-story/7d67f5c7b85f7052b798239ae37bb421
Police believe it was an intentional act. I wonder what gave it away? The recording saying it was going to explode maybe?

It's still a little early for this speculation. All I will say is that it wouldn't surprise me.
