President Trump said the person responsible for a string of bombings in Texas this month is “very sick” and vowed to “get to the bottom of it” during remarks from the White House on Tuesday.
Trump’s comments come on the heels of a package exploding at a FedEx plant in Schertz, Texas earlier in the morning and authorities probing a second Texas FedEx facility, in Austin, due to a report of a suspicious package.
San Antonio Police Chief Bill McManus said at a news conference another package that authorities believe was “also loaded with explosive device” was found at the facility, bringing the total number of devices since the start of the month to a total of six.
The five reported blasts in March — four in Austin — have killed two people and injured several others.
“The bombings in Austin are terrible,” Trump said. “Local, state, federal are working hand-in-hand to get to the bottom of it. This is obviously a very, very sick individual — and maybe individuals. These are sick people, and we will get to the bottom of it.”
Trump’s comments come as law enforcement appeared to be making progress in the bomb probe.
The Sunset Valley Police Department told Fox News in an emailed statement that the FBI is investigating a “confirmed link” between packages involved in the Austin bombing investigation and a mail delivery office in Sunset Valley, located south of downtown.
