Bomb-making materials taken from Times Square car

None

New York City police have removed bomb-making materials from a parked sports utility vehicle in Times Square, including propane tanks and a clock suspected to be a timing device.

 

Top police spokesman Paul Browne says investigators have also removed gasoline and explosive powders from the vehicle. An officer noticed smoke coming from the sport utility vehicle around 6:30 pm (2230 GMT) and cleared the streets of thousands of theatergoers and tourists from the landmark. (AP)
