That’s security camera footage from about 154 2nd Ave. The AT&T building is across the street to the right.

Commerce Street is a block to the left.

The internet is buzzing with speculation about this. According to CNN the RV was at 2nd and Commerce st, which puts 
it 1-block away from the ATT building. If it were the target, I'd imagine they would have parked it closer.

Certainly thankful no serious injuries or fatalities in this clusterblank.

It seems the AT&T building at 185 2nd Ave N may have been a target, which would explain the timing (holiday morning 
when no one is out, as opposed to a holiday evening when there would be mass casualties). A little curious what 
that building has. Is it just a big co-lo place? Regional CLEC/ILEC? 

No earth-shattering revelations here. Admittedly just bored on a slow Christmas Day when my wife is at work (nurse) 
and kid is playing with a new tablet and I’m just watching the news trying to understand/figure out a little what 
and why.
