He was apparently trying to blow up the pedestrian passageway between the times square subway station and the Port Authority bus terminal. He ended up injuring himself.

All right, hello, again, everyone, and welcome, im fredricka whitfield. We begin with breaking news. Were now hearing from President Trump as he breaks his silence on the stunning guilty plea by his former National Security adviser Michael Flynn just moments ago. The president tweeting this, i had to fire general flynn because he lied to the Vice President and the fbi. He has pled guilty to those lies.
