The city of Nashville, Tennessee was rocked by a loud explosion very early on Christmas Day. While initial reports indicated that only three people had been injured after the loud blast, as the day progressed, authorities indicated that they found other human remains at the site of the bombing.
Local police immediately described the blast as intentional, without referring to a case of terrorism. Despite the findings of human remains, it has not been confirmed whether they belong to a possible victim of the attack, but a civil emergency.

The city police spokesman said a warning sounded before the blast, warning from a recreational vehicle “RV” about a bomb explosion within 15 minutes. The explosion happened near the AT&T building in the city center and internet service was interrupted for several hours.
A Latino resident of the area confirmed to Hoy Dallas that he was affected by the outage. Authorities later confirmed that cell phone (and power) blackouts were massive in the area and that air traffic towers were also affected for some periods of time.
Freddie O’Connell, a city councilman representing the affected district, stated that “2020 has already seen a lot of devastation. It’s hard to wake up on Christmas morning and see more” in his hometown.
ALERT: A person who lives in an apartment near the site of the bombing told The Tennessean that he heard loud gunshots at about 4:30 a.m. and decided to call 911. Then he heard the aforementioned warning regarding the vehicle that was stationed outside the building of your home.
“Evacuate now. There is a bomb. There is a bomb in this vehicle and it will explode,” recalls the warning that came from a recording.
In an interview with WKRN, A national security expert questioned whether the shots heard also came from a recording or had been real and indicated that investigators will find out how the bomb used was made and other forms of sophistication used for the specific attack.
FBI: Federal Agent Matt Foster requested the public’s assistance in gathering additional details and reports on the incident and the vehicle involved. “We need clues, we need help.” He said they had a “massive crime scene” before them.
At least $ 00,000 is offered for anyone providing information about the bombing.
Nashville Mayor John Cooper reported that some 41 businesses were damaged by the blast and that the magnitude is catastrophic. The authorities declared a curfew around the 2nd. Avenida, in effect from Friday to Sunday at 4:30 pm
The 24th of December, Univision.com reported that a group of white supremacists planned to attack power plants, according to FBI inquiries.
The federal investigation, which was sealed but mistakenly left open, looks at encrypted communications in a messaging group in which an Ohio teenager spoke of plotting against power plants to cut power or buying a ranch for military training.
