[앵커]

On Christmas morning, investigation results revealed that a suspect in a car explosion in Nashville, Tennessee, home of American country music, committed self-destruction at the scene and appears to be a single crime.

At the time, an explosion video was also released.

This is a video of a police car on a Christmas morning when a Nashville car exploded.

This is the moment when a recreational vehicle exploded in the middle of the city while the police blocking the traffic fell behind.

The impact of a powerful explosion along with the flames caused the debris to fly far near the police car.

The explosion injured 3 people, destroyed 40 nearby shops, and destroyed windows.

Investigation authorities pointed to the suspect, 63-year-old Anthony Quinn Warner, from Nashville, whose DNA matched the remains found at the site of the explosion.

They also concluded that the suspect committed self-destruction and was a solo offense.

However, the investigating authorities said they have not yet reached a conclusion on the motive of the crime.

[더그 코네스키 / FBI 지부장 : 국내 테러와 연계된 사건을 평가할 때 이데올로기와 결부돼야 합니다. 정치·사회적 이념이나 사건을 키우기 위해 무력이나 폭력을 사용하는 것입니다. 아직까진 테러 결부 사실을 확인하지 못하고 있습니다.]

Investigation authorities are noting that the site of the explosion was near the office of the US telecommunications company AT&T, which interrupted some communications services and temporarily suspended airplane takeoff at the airport.

Investigation authorities are said to be investigating whether Warner thought that 5G networks were a tool for spying on Americans, and whether this paranoia was the background of the case.

Immediately before the explosion on the 25th, the vehicle exploded after a video message continued to flow from the vehicle warning that a bomb would detonate in 15 minutes.
