How does someone wearing gloves while dropping off packages in Austin during this time raise no red flags? Is that a common thing to do?

Southbound Interstate 35 into Austin from its northern suburbs will be closed until 9 am or longer.

It will be a traffic nightmare.

I just looked and traffic is backed up from southernmost Round Rock, nearly to Georgetown.

I'm sorry, it's central Round Rock. I bet it backs up to Belton (about 50 miles).

So FedEx guy wasn’t suspicious of man coming in wearing gloves and a wig with packages in the town where packages were blowing up?

KXAN-TV in Austin reports that two cargo vans chased the bombers car, stopped in a shootout while stopped on the freeway, then he was shot to death. A device was removed from car and detonated. Bomber apparently in jeep.

In defense of the FedEx guy he dropped the bombs off Sunday, prior to that none of the other bombs had gone through a mail service.

It may have even been before the trip wire bomb.

Fox just said the cops shot him and took something out of his truck and detonated it.

KXAN interviewed witness who heard shooting but no explosion, also a robot coming up to car.

AP and Austin American-Statesman quote police source who says suspect blew himself up in vehicle while parked along road.

He apparently said "If you want to be the man, you've got to beat the man. Whooooooooh!!".

Or am I the only one that noticed who he looks like?

Other way around. The guy smoking at the red roof Inn said he heard an explosion but no gunfire. Apparently the guy blew himself up and then a cop shot him.

24 year old white guy? That has to be a wig then.
