Explosion in Times Square

I woke up around 5:15AM to get into the office early. After I got out of the shower, I could hear a helicopter that just didn’t seem to be going away. Hearing helicopters is not a good thing, especially if you live in Times Square and it wasn’t a good thing when I was living in Queens either. Anyway, I turned on the news and there were traffic alerts that all the trains were not going into 42nd Street because of an explosion. The explosion was in front of the Armed Forces Recruiting Station. If you are familiar with Times Square, you’ll know where that is. There wasn’t much else reported about the explosion except that they have two leads. It happened around 4am but I didn’t hear a thing from where I live and Henry’s been up pulling an all nighter and he didn’t hear a thing either.

Update
On the way into the office I saw (and heard) four helicopters. I’m in my office and I still hear them, though they aren’t as loud as they were when I was at home. I can’t see much since my windows face West.
