Torn Backpack (Top); Destroyed Pressure Cooker (Bottom) |
An intelligence bulletin from the FBI shows a picture of a destroyed
pressure cooker that is believed to be the source of one of the explosions during the
Boston Marathon.
Explosives were tightly sealed inside the cooker with nails and
ball bearings, thus amplifying the damage.
Also in the report was a torn backpack that was used to
conceal the explosive-rigged pressure cooker.
Investigators said Tuesday that the bomb is to be reconstructed
in order to learn more about the explosives used.
What exactly was used as the fusing system or detonation
device(s) has not been determined.
