kind of crisis or those factors. also in the l.a. times account about what they they have on syed farook. they have spoken to his cubical mate in that office there in the center where he worked. and he says that farook traveled to saudi arabia where he met his got his wife, met his wife who he had met online before traveling to saudi arabia. and as he puts it, it seemed like he was living the american dream. well, you ll recall that 9/11 hijackers, many of them lived under the surface and nobody knew they were going to carry out a brutal, horrific attack. all right. we ll be back with more of our live converage of the situation in san bernardino.
his job was in jeopardy? i don t have any information on that. chief, the explosives that were found, were they pipe bombs, propane tanks? complicated devices? i don t know exactly. we re learning more towards a pipe bomb type design. but specifically, i don t have that right now. did law enforcement have any previous interaction with the suspects? not that i m aware of. any indications others were involved? we are working that angle and reaching out to any and all contacts and folks they may have had and that s part of the ongoing investigation. any other weapons or explosive devices found in the vehicle? so i gave you everything we had in the vehicle. oh. the rifles that are listed. is it possible that the same what s that? i can t understand you. i mean, the center. is that possible to open to the media at some time? at some point, we ll render
things, obviously, talking about multiple devices, pipe bomb devices. that was one of the interesting things. obviously, we saw some of the pictures in terms of detonating one of the devices and then hearing responses to others. so that was a firm number that we heard there. and then, the relationship between the two suspects. we d heard this, obviously, from sourcing. but now, giving the names and saying that definitively. so the question the chief got about does this seem spontaneous, provoked today, something that happened today or was this planned. and he said, because of all of the equipment involved, this had to be planned. the l.a. times is reporting that syed farook was at that party, gathering, in that cen r center. his co-workers saw him there. he was well-liked by his co-workers and the account in the l.a. times today. and they said right before they
i think i would also follow up the lead on the fiancee/wife here. again, you don t want to make the leap yet. but, again, you need to leave everything on the table here. it is important to be careful because we don t want to jump to conclusions. we don t need to be making mistakes at this point. and, again, i thought the chief did a really fine job in clarifying much as he could without jumping to conclusions himself. i was impressed as a former prosecutor. i thought about how i would have handled this. and i think under the circumstances, i think he s doing it right. on the intelligence side, there s a lot of leads you can follow up on. and they need to do that. and jack, the l.a. times reports that, quote, his co-workers at this center who suffered this horrible tragedy today never suspecting, saying he was a very nice guy. they report in there that he was a devout muslim. they also say in the next breath that there s absolutely knob
explanation here, that it s one thing that provoked this that you could end up with someone with mixed motivations. certainly, the targeting of this workplace now is less mysterious. since he worked there. so he wasn t confused about where he was or what he was hitting or what he was attacking. he knew exactly where he was hitting and why he was hitting it. we don t yet know why he was hitting it. but he clearly did. that s a very good point. you know, if it was clear cut terrorism, it would be rather odd for a guy to shoot up a center like that. rather than making a big public display, like the boston bombers or what occurred in paris. it would have been a much more grandiose exhibition. the fact this was very targeted. the fact that, supposedly he walked away angry, and connect that, we still need to know
