The suspect broke glass in order to put the explosive inside the house, Carringer stated. Carringer stated that a woman who lived there heard the glass shatter and that she came downstairs to look, but was struck by the “flying” glass, breaking her hand and foot.

The explosive was left behind by the suspect, and the suspect fled quickly.

” We’re looking into why this could have happened,” Carringer stated. It’s possible that it was totally random .”
