FBI: packages indeed contain explosives

The suspicious packages that an arrested man would have sent to, among other prominent Democrats, contain explosive material.

Wray said the found pipe bombs were certainly not fake. However, it remains to be investigated whether they could actually be detonated or brought to explosion. The FBI chief, congratulated via Twitter by President Donald Trump, considered it too early to talk about what the suspect, Cesar Sayoc (56), had inspired. He has a long criminal record, with a bomb threat.
