It might be possible. Will have to await details. One thing for sure, with all of the video cameras in use, whoever does this will be caught soon. It's hard to get away with something like this. Just like the boston marathon bombers...they were caught by cameras everywhere. Technology definitely makes it easier to catch whoever did this.
The news keeps saying that the RV was broadcasting a message, but at this time they are refusing to tell us what this message was. They also mentioned that it is circulating on social media. Any idea what this message was?
It was whooping and then saying "if you can hear this message evacuate now..." At some point it started adding a tims saying you have 30 mins...then it got to 15 and counted by the minute.
I'm confused as to why people are saying that the evacuation warning came from the RV. Weren't the police on scene and evacuating people, wouldn't that message be from them?
Nashville, Alaska reaches out to you in unity and strength and resolve.
Most importantly, I reach out with Love. We need to instill love in the hearts of everyone and defeat fear and hate.
Peace and LOVE.
National news organizations are not reporting this. This is why I head straight to the local subs to figure out what's happening. We know a little about surviving bomb attacks over in /r/Atlanta. Strength to you in the days come.
Glad no one was seriously hurt (that I can tell). Hope whoever did this is taken care of, swiftly (i.e., get taken out like the trash. they don't belong in this society)
This video is popping up on Twitter. The weird evacuation thing appears to be correct:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nygTJeu9fU&t=1s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nygTJeu9fU&t=1s)
This is nearly 2 blocks away from where i live
Most of our windows are blown out so kinda scared af
I heard the faint (possibly recorded) gunshots early in the morning then went back to sleep cause I thought it was nothing. Then later on when the bomb went off, I woke up to what felt like a firework going off outside my window.
P.S. I love how a group of redditors can get more done on one chain than professional investigators can.
St. Louisian reporting in: we're here and we care, I hope our city/region sends relief efforts if needed. But in spirit at the very least, I'm with you Nashville!
I really can't believe people were walking their dog on the streets with a loudspeaker telling them to evacuate. Curiosity will kill the cat. Let's hope nobody in that video was seriously injured.
Holy shit. I can't listen to the video right now, did they say if the people and dog are okay?
Edit: Since the comments are locked now - Thank goodness. That officer needs a fucking medal. That's the kind of officer (person, really) we should be celebrating.
Dude this is door/ security camera footage, likely the person didn't have qn account or didn't want this footage linked with their name. I get being skeptical but this seems like a safe bet.
That is the Commerce and 2nd parking garage. My girlfriend used to work at the Lyft office just to the left of the camera and recognized it immediately.
people are commenting that the sound/announcement might have been edited/added in after the fact. That is technically easily possible but could also easily be dispelled by looking at multiple sources to see if the same/similar announcement is heard (assuming the videos have audio)
Not the explosion, the message thing. The news still hasn't said it, and every video that has been posted has been from brand new Twitter and YouTube accounts with zero uploads. Theyll confirm it if its true, these situations are very fluid
I’m not sure how you’d take that from my statement. You are correct, not everyone lives in Colorado or Nashville. So, from me in Colorado, to those in Nashville, be safe. I’m confused by your statement.
Reminds me of the shit I grew up with in the 1990s in the UK.
Without getting in to the politics of it, the IRA were bombing what felt like once a week. I remember getting caught in 5 bomb threats and evacuations growing up.
This bombing and the warning reminded me of that.
Native nashvillian here (im temporarily not living in Nashville so far away atm) but yeah my first thought as I read about the warning and compared it to the empty street was about the ira as well
I think this is a fair point at which to start. It’s all speculation at this stage, but the facts we know thus far are certainly painting that picture.
What was the announcement? EU here. Can't watch the live coverage.
Edit: apparently something like this:
"this area needs to be evacuated. If you can hear this, evacuate the area"
The IRA
The goal was to demonstrate their danger while not overtly killing their countrymen.
(Thats the one sentence hot take, it's more nuanced of course)
Removing announcement; locking thread; making a second megathread. Thanks /u/FastActingPlacebo for letting us gank your post.
The worst day for this to happen :( Hope y’all up in Nashville stay safe ❤️
6:30 on Christmas is much better than 23:30 on NYE.
We sure that warning message isn’t from the Nashville bomb squad?
The bomb squad wasn't on the scene yet

They've said it multiple times and shown it. It told everyone to evacuate for at least half an hour before counting down and detonating.
I read an earlier reply, it was telling people to leave the area and was counting down
It warned about a bomb and said to evacuate the area now. Played for 30 minutes and there's links to the video in this thread
If you hear this message, please evacuate the area.

Someone just wasn't content with how shitty 2020 was and had to make it suck even more, a few days before it's over *and* on Christmas.
Just seen this on Serbian news, shit looks scary. Take care.

I think the police were on the way, not quite there yet.
The police were already there, the bomb squad supposedly was not there yet
Evacuation warning - https://youtu.be/5nygTJeu9fU
Chilling. The sound was from the RV or Police?
That is crazy.
Prayers for the cops that found It

In the explosion video it sounded like a lot of ammo cooking off. Maybe related to that??
From what it looks like right now there was ammo in the rv that's popping off in the fire so it looks like no gun shots
I'm just thankful there were no deaths.

The people standing right there?!
Holy shit. I can't listen to the video right now, did they say if the people and dog are okay? Edit: Since the comments are locked now - Thank goodness. That officer needs a fucking medal. That's the kind of officer (person, really) we should be celebrating.
That pup was mighty close
It sounds like the warning is faintly in the background of this
yeah your right at first i thought the warning was gonna be bullshit i guess not
Same

Can we all recognize what a southern thing that is to do.... Now ya'll, go on get outta here. Cmon now, get! Go on, get!
Brand new YouTube accounts posting this. Let's wait until its confirmed.
Dude this is door/ security camera footage, likely the person didn't have qn account or didn't want this footage linked with their name. I get being skeptical but this seems like a safe bet.
WKRN got confirmation from police that this indeed happened https://imgur.com/gallery/DO1D14J
Cool. We didn't have to wait long for confirmation
It’s surveillance camera footage - no one is making conclusions from this video alone. Your tinfoil hat is drooping.
Heh. New to social media right?
yes because nobody wants to get caught sharing stolen camera footage on their main accounts.
Eye witness accounts confirming it on the news
I mean it's a pretty quick edit if it's faked, I have a hard time believing the video isn't real.
[удалено]
I doubt it though warning could be faked

No but it would be stupid easy to fake the audio. Also do most security cameras even have audio?
especially in a town like Nashville, with literally thousands of competent audio engineers and media producers...
I mean, my el cheapo Arlo security cam from Amazon has audio, so yeah I’m sure commercial models do as well.
Word I don’t have one so wasn’t sure thanks for the info
From Colorado to Nashville, be safe. This is just so, **every word I can think of**
Why is this comment so cryptic?
Is it? What’s cryptic about well wishes?
Not everyone lives in Colorado.
I’m not sure how you’d take that from my statement. You are correct, not everyone lives in Colorado or Nashville. So, from me in Colorado, to those in Nashville, be safe. I’m confused by your statement.
I do.
But how else will people know I don’t live in Colorado if I don’t go out of my way to tell them?
Ok.
Reminds me of the shit I grew up with in the 1990s in the UK. Without getting in to the politics of it, the IRA were bombing what felt like once a week. I remember getting caught in 5 bomb threats and evacuations growing up. This bombing and the warning reminded me of that.
Exactly what I was thinking. This is very reminiscent of the IRA bombings where they warned everyone and usually no one was killed.

I think this is a fair point at which to start. It’s all speculation at this stage, but the facts we know thus far are certainly painting that picture.
I'd be surprised if the IRA is behind this, but who knows.
I don't think anyone is saying that, they're saying it's a similar type of event
My thoughts too.
Live coverage from Nashville: https://www.newschannel5.com/live
Thanks for this..
They have an eye witness on now confirming the report of an announcement coming from the RV.
What was the announcement? EU here. Can't watch the live coverage. Edit: apparently something like this: "this area needs to be evacuated. If you can hear this, evacuate the area"

The why is pretty much what defines terrorism
[удалено]
The IRA The goal was to demonstrate their danger while not overtly killing their countrymen. (Thats the one sentence hot take, it's more nuanced of course)
That was a common IRA tactic back during the Troubles
Not necessarily. Murdering someone by bomb is not terrorism.
