Suspect Suicide

On Wednesday, March 21, 2018, there was multiple exploding packages in Austin, Texas. The suspect that law enforcement officials believe who was behind these attacks is named Mark Anthony Conditt. The Austin police department and the FBI finally tracked down Conditt in a hotel parking lot in Round Rock, Texas and then drove away. The APD wanted to "wait for tactical units before engaging the suspect" but as they were waiting, Conditt drove away. He then stopped on the side of I35 and as the SWAT team approached his vehicle, he detonated a bomb. SWAT began shooting at the suspect, "who died in the vehicle". The motives behind the bombings are still unknown, but everyone is on their toes waiting to see what the police finds out.
