The device is believed to not have fully detonated and it is unknown if it contained any projectiles.
A massive manhunt is on for the bomber and terrorism is suspected in the attack and police say that have identified a suspect after reviewing CC TV footage.
U.S. President Donald Trump referred to the cowardly bomber as a “loser terrorist” and said that people like them must be dealt with in a “much tougher manner.”
